1967 poster for Michael Cullen, Edward Hynes, Roger Miley and Basil Phelan- Fianna Fail -Wicklow Local Elections January 5, 2013


From the 1967 Local Elections a poster for Fianna Fail Wicklow Michael Cullen, Edward Hynes, Roger Miley and Basil Phelan. I dont have the results but as far as I know both Michael Cullen and Basil Phelan were elected. Roger Miley was elected in 1974 to the Council.
Basil Phelan later stood for Fianna Fail in the 1969 and 1973 General Elections but failed to win a seat on each occasion.

Flyer for Monica Ryan -Sinn Fein – 1967 Local Elections Dublin January 15, 2011


First off many many to the sender who notes…

“I’m not sure when it dates from, but Moira is now in her 90’s and lived on Caledon Road, East Wall, the mother of Mick Ryan and also of Nicky Ryan – manager of Enya.
Both Moira & Mick were on the Ard Chomhlaire together in the early 70’s the only time I think that a mother and son were on together.”

I gather the leaflet is from the 1967 Local Elections. In the early 1950 she was involved with Clann na Poblachta.

Bernard Connolly, Vincent MacDowell, Joseph Maguire, Gerard O’Reilly- Labour Party- 1967 Local Elections Rathdown May 11, 2010


From the 1967 Local Elections in the Rathdown Ward Labour Party candidates Bernard Connolly, Vincent MacDowell, Joseph Maguire and Gerard O’Reilly.
Was given a loan of this to scan – many thanks.
The Leaflet starts off by telling us that the local Elections had been delayed because they feared the Labour Party.
Labour seeks your active support -to change the quality of our local life by encouraging all sections of the community to develop a new progressive civic spirit.
Bernard Connolly was involved in the ITGWU, and would have been well known in the area at the time.
Vincent MacDowell, who later stood for the Green Party in 1992 and 1997 General Elections was father of former MEP Nuala Ahern. The Socialist Republican Labour Party which he was a founder of was the Party of Gerry Fitt amongst others.
It split in 1970 as Gerry Fitt and others joined the newly formed SDLP. The party disbanded in 1973.
Joseph Maguire was another involved in the ITGWU as well as music where he helped reestablish St Kevins Band in Bray.
Gerard O’Reilly was a businessman in Stillorgan and interested in the care of the mentally handicapped.
