Why should someone vote for you (in 140 characters or fewer)?
I have a proven record of delivering for the community, both locally as TD for Dublin Mid-West and nationally as Minister for Children and Minister for Justice.
What is your number one priority for your constituency?
Delivery of more community facilities, to support sports clubs and community groups and provide activities for children, teenagers and families.
What one thing would you like to do in your first 100 days of the new Dáil if you are elected?
My wish is to be able to vote for the re-election of Enda Kenny as Taoiseach and the continuation of stable government for a secure economy.
