“Having consulted with family, friends, supporters and members of the general public I have decided that during my election campaign in the Castleisland Electoral Area I will not be erecting any election posters. This decision is based on keeping Kerry clean and environmentally friendly.”
“That’s a statement of intent from Charlie Farrelly, independent candidate in the May 24th local elections for the four-seater Castleisland area.
Ditches and Dykes
“In the course of my employment with Kerry County Council Roads Department I constantly see broken and torn posters and advertising corriboard signs blown down and ending up in ditches and dykes along the highways and byways of Kerry.
Public Requests
“I have already made a public request to the other declared candidates to make this a Poster Free Campaign but as of yet they have remained silent.
Example Set
“Once again I am calling on all candidates to come out and publicly declare whether they are willing to follow my example of having a Poster Free Campaign in the Castleisland Electoral Area,” said Charlie.
