Who came out on top of last night's debate?

We want your verdict on last night’s leaders’ debate on TV3

EVERY DAY OF the campaign, TheJournal.ie puts one of the pressing issues of the campaign to the snap judgement of the public.

In today’s Face Off, we want your verdict on last night’s leaders’ debate on TV3. Both Michéal Martin and Eamonn Gilmore claim to have been satisfied with their outing, while most of today’s papers credit a pugilistic Martin with the most impressive performance of the night.

But who do you think came out on top? Was it the Fianna Fáil leader, the Labour front man – or did Enda Kenny’s decision to stay away make him the real victor?


Poll Results:

Micheal Martin (335)
Enda Kenny (210)
Eamon Gilmore (205)
