Calling card from Aine Brady -Fianna Fail- Kildare North -2011 General Election January 29, 2011


Many thanks to the sender.
From the 2011 General Election, a card delivered in doors this week from Kildare North Fianna Fail TD Aine Brady. Her colleague Michael Fitzpatrick delivered a budget guide.
Seems to indicate that a lot of Fianna Fail candidates may have been waiting for the leadership to be sorted before getting campaign literature together.
