Hopefully there isn't a turd like that in Irish politics.

I'm sure there is, political systems by their very nature are like toilet bowls, full of turds.

Most analysis I've seen online suggests FF/FG with a few Independents.

Why do you think that was?

There's been a campaign of harassment against Roderic O'Gorman and Hazel Chu, which was possibly one of the factors.

I think their policies are perceived in a negative light in rural/farming circles and the party is generally portrayed in the media as fringe or 'loony' .
The Green Party lost heavily in the council elections earlier in the year, so public perception was already sliding.
Its also not unusual for the weaker party in a coalition government to poll badly in the next election.. similar slump for Labour after their recent stint in power.

Good point. And the figure, in terms of voters, is more like 15x.

Extended residence outside a country means that very few laws that are made and policies adopted affect you, so why would you need a right to vote.
