LAST UPDATE | 6 Feb 2020
WITH GENERAL ELECTION 2020 just three days away, the nation’s thoughts are on what are next government will look like.
We’ve been analysing polls, keeping up with debates, and here at TheJournal.ie we’ve been FactChecking claims made.
But how does Ireland end up with the politicians it has? How much do polls, debates, and social media have to do with it – and how much is people voting for party or country?
That’s something we take a deep dive into on this week’s The Explainer podcast. Recorded for the first time before a live audience at Crow Street in Dublin’s Temple Bar, Sinéad O’Carroll is joined by journalist and broadcaster Lise Hand and Professor Gary Murphy, Associate Professor of Politics at DCU, and Maynooth University’s election guru Adrian Kavanagh, as well as TU Dublin professor and pollster Kevin Cunningham.
