Rocking the Vote in Ireland from the UK

Now at this stage if you are a regular reader of Maman Poulet you’ll know that I think that Rock the Vote have a few organisiational problems – well more than a few.

Now yesterday Rock the Vote went around telling everyone about Cillian Murphy – the actor – and I’m wondering if Cillian is indeed registered to vote? Since he has not been home since last July and all….And he’s married and lives in London with his wife and child.
And Dara O’Briain the other celeb namedropped yesterday is based full time in the UK according to his agent’s website. Where is his vote based?
So that’s the two people that the Executive Director of Rock the Vote spent time yesterday telling people were going to Rock the vote and neither of them is resident in Ireland – and probably they don’t have a vote and if they did they are probably not entitled to it.
Only thinking like….with the people behind Rock the Vote that’d be dangerous…
