Dessie Shiels tops Highland Radio GE16 web poll

dessieCouncillor Dessie Sheils has topped a weekend poll run on the Highland Radio website which asked the question, it the election were today – who would get your first preference.
Over one thousand people took part in the poll which ran from Friday until Monday morning.
The Independent General Election candidate topped the poll with 32% of the vote followed by another Independent, Tim Jackson, who secured 18% of votes.
Sinn Fein’s Pearse Doherty was third with 15% with Fianna Fail’s Charlie McConalogue and Sinn Fein’s Padraig MacLochlainn tied on 8%
Pat the Cope Gallagher received 4% of the vote as did Independent Thomas Pringle while Fine Gael’s Joe McHugh secured 3%.
