Well he didn't get many votes , but I bet he didn't expect that result .
So a couple of things to think about .
What are your opinions about RSF (which isn't allowed to field candidates since it is a banned terrorist group) fielding its candidates as independants ?
Was the timing of the arrest helpful to the peace process , since he could have been arrested at any time ? plus since the crime was when he was provisional not continuity/real it is covered under the release scheme so he will not serve any time even if it goes to court and is convicted .
Finally , any thoughts on if this election will lead to a restoration of the assembly or will the governments be forced to push through implimenting Good Friday & St. Andrews by themselves ?
