He confirmed via Twitter that the date will be February 26th, just over three weeks away. It will be one of the shortest election campaigns in the history of the state.

So Enda eventually gives citizens our say! Don’t waste your vote. Elect a progressive government. Vote Sinn Féin. Ádh mór oraibh.
