As Ireland gears up for the General Election on November 29, Chief Executive of An Coimisiún Toghcháin, Art O’Leary, highlighted that many primary schools will close due to voting. He emphasized that previous Saturday voting led to lower turnout, which could significantly impact election outcomes. With 5,500 polling stations nationwide, O’Leary urged citizens to register, noting the importance of an accurate electoral register. Current efforts aim to improve register accuracy, but changes will not be completed in time for the upcoming election.
