VOTE: Who would you vote for to be the next President of Ireland?
A poll in the Sunday Independent suggests just 7% of people would vote for Conor McGregor in the Presidential Election
Ireland will elect a new president later this year as Michael D Higgins ends his second term in Áras an Uachtarain.
Michael D was first elected to the position in 2011 and was re-elected for a second term in 2018. Peter Casey finished second on that occasion while Sean Gallagher was second in 2011.
The race for the Áras has ramped up recently when MMA fighter Conor McGregor said he was going to throw his hat in the ring and run for President. This followed his meeting with Donald Trump in the Oval Office.
A Sunday Independent poll suggests the controversial fighter would only attract votes from 7% of the population while the bookies have established singer and senator Frances Black as the favourite.
So, who would you like to see elected as the next President of Ireland? A singer, a fighter, a comedian, a host of politicians, or even Donald Trump himself? Vote in our poll to let us know.
