The survey, conducted in the channel #qotd, reveals 89% of respondents supported Taoiseach EpicNoah1358's decision to resign, while just 2% oppose it—a margin signaling a major erosion of confidence. 93% of poll respondents condemn the government's handling of border conflicts, declaring efforts "not enough."
The data also paints a dire picture for the 31st Dáil, where 88% of respondents lack confidence in the caretaker government. The alignment of these figures—all exceeding 88% disapproval—suggests a systemic crisis rather than isolated grievances.
If an election were held tomorrow:
- The Labour Party, with just under 29% support, would win 8 seats.
- The Green Party follows at 27%, which would win them 7 seats, but the party faces skepticism on foreign policy (23% trust).
- Fianna Fáil trails at just under 20%, which would increase their seat count from 2 to 5 seats.
- The Social Democrats sit at 9%, which would see them losing seven seats, going from 9 seats to 2.
- Fine Gael polled at just below 3%, which would secure them zero seats.
- A critical 11.5% (representing three seats) remain undecided—enough to tip the balance in favor of Labour, the Greens or Fianna Fáil.
Foreign Policy Trust Split
No party commands a mandate on international affairs:
- Labour leads with a plurality of 29% trust.
- Greens (23%) and Fianna Fáil (21%) split confidence.
- Notably, 13% of voters have no confidence in any party on international affairs.
Public Demands Election
A decisive 86% of respondents back an early election—a direct rebuke to the Dáil's performance. "These numbers aren't discontent; they're an obituary for this government's legitimacy," said a political analyst reviewing the data.
What Comes Next?
With Labour lacking a clear path to a majority and the nominated coalition government facing trust deficits (Labour-Social Democrats: 38% combined), Ireland's political future hangs in the balance. The 11.5% undecided voters loom as kingmakers, waiting on the parties to sway their votes with action and policy.
