JEFFREY DUDGEON’S SEANAD ELECTION DIARY
THE FIRST TEN DAYS
Nomination day
Thursday 3rd March, between 10 and 12, was nomination day at Trinity. After a couple of hours transcribing Roger Casement’s enormous Berlin diary in the National Library’s Manuscript Room in Kildare Street, I wandered down at 11 a.m. through the college’s Nassau Street entrance to hand in my papers.
Actually they had been posted earlier in the week for checking, and just needed my nod to be entered in the race. Or pulled.
Assentor issues
There had been something of a drama two days earlier with one of my assentors developing the notion of running himself and wanting to remove his name from the form. I had however taken the precaution of having a twelfth man, actually a lady, should any prove problematic.
I was conscious of such problems as I had previously signed up two assentors who were certain they were registered graduates only to discover they were graduates who had never registered.
