        So, her one claim to fame is that her father and grandfather were politicians.
        Sorry, but we need fresh blood, not people who have had their snout in the trough for generations. And her number one priority is to have local roads upgraded. This is a job for county councillors, NOT TDs. has she not been listening that people want an end to parish pump politics? Obviously she hasn’t been paying attention. No vote from me.
