Sinn Féin Maintains Strong Lead in Irish Politics Ahead of Next Election, Latest Poll Shows
Dublin: According to the most recent opinion poll conducted by the Irish Times/Ipsos Group, Sinn Féin is poised to remain Ireland’s largest single party after the next election. With 9 months until local elections and 18 months until the upcoming general election, Sinn Féin holds a commanding 14 percent lead over its closest competitors.
The latest figures indicate that Sinn Féin has surged to 34 percent support, marking a three percentage point increase, as a response to growing public discontent with the current government.
