Sinn Féin maintains a substantial lead over FF and FG
The latest Irish Times/Ipsos poll confirms Sinn Féin as the most popular party in Ireland, even if the party’s lead has been trimmed by small gains for both Fianna Fáil and Fine Gael.
If a general election were held now, Sinn Féin would attract 33 per cent of the vote, down two points since our December 2021 poll.
Fianna Fáil is up to 23 per cent, gaining three points and registering its best performance since the 2020 general election. This is also the first poll since that election that has Fianna Fáil polling ahead of Fine Gael.
