John McDermott- Roscommon Hospital Action Committee -Roscommon-South Leitrim- 2011 GE


A flyer, sticker and Sorry I misssed you card from John McDermott who is running for the Roscommon Hospital Action Committee in the 2011 General election in Roscommon South Leitrim.
The Roscommon Hospital Action Committee was founded in 1976. Tom Foxe was a TD from 1989 to 1997 representing the RHAC. It currently has two councillors on Roscommon County Council.
It is still a major issue, in 2007 the now Labour candidate John Kelly ran with the backing of the RHAC. There have been a number of protests recently and almost all local politicians would have been at the protests.
It will be interesting to see if John McDermott can capitalise on this to win a seat.
Many thanks to the sender
