This afternoon, Kerry County Councillors are due to hear from at least 12 potential candidates seeking their backing to run in the Presidential election today. One of those is Presidential candidate Gareth Sheridan, who spoke to Jerry about why he believes it’s important Independents go forward. Potential candidates need the support of four local authorities to get on the ballot paper. Wexford County Council is also holding a similar process today. Jerry spoke to Kerry County Councillors Michael Foley of Fine Gael, Labour’s Marie Moloney, and Breandán Fitzgerald of Fianna Fáil.
