Poll: Should David Norris rejoin the race for the Áras?

It seems likely that Senator Norris will declare on tonight’s Late Late Show that he is back in the race to secure a presidential nomination. Do you think he’s right to restart his campaign?

SENATOR DAVID NORRIS is to appear on the Late Late Show tonight, apparently to announce that he is resuming his bid to become a presidential candidate.

TD Maureen O’Sullivan told TheJournal.ie yesterday that her feeling from an address that N0rris made to Leinster House yesterday was that he is once again an ‘active candidate’ in the race for the Áras. He had announced that he was withdrawing his bid to become a candidate on 2 August last. The declaration followed a controversy surrounding a letter he wrote pleading clemency for his former partner Ezra Nawi after Nawi was convicted of statutory rape in 1997.

We’re asking you what you think. Should David Norris restart his bid to get on the presidential ballot paper?
