Two of the main political parties have chosen the Northern Sound region to kick off their election campaigns this week.
Fine Gael leader and Taoiseach, Simon Harris, will be in both Cavan and Monaghan this afternoon while Sinn Fein leader Mary Lou McDonald will travel to Co. Monaghan to campaign with local candidates.
Today will also see some political parties publish a range of policy papers today as their leaders continue to campaign across the country ahead of the General Election. Independent candidates will also be explaining their policies to the electorate, on what is the third full day of campaigning. Polling takes place on Friday 29 November. Fianna Fáil is the first party to launch their manifesto for Election 2024 this morning.
