Interesting times here at the moment....dare i say im "looking forward" to the local elections tomorrow.
According to polls the current leanings are:
Sinn Fein - 26.2%
Alliance - 18.2%
DUP - 18.2%
UUP - 12.1%
SDLP - 10.5%
TUV - 5.7%
Greens - 2.9%
People Before Profit - 2.1%
Looking like Sinn Fein will take the First Minister role and I think Alliance will displace a few DUP candidates...but probably not enough to completely oust them from the First Minister/Dept First Minister post.
I wouldnt be surprised if SDLP see big gains...(imo) Colum Eastwood has played a blinder, and appears to be a very popular leader.
In all likelihood people will just vote as they always do...but i really hope that they look at the mess left by the likes of the DUP who arent prepared to work with other parties and have collapsed Stormont on a whim.
