Better research is needed into Casey ballot bounce

PAUL Williams writes as though he knows those of us who voted for Peter Casey (“Election exposes an inconvenient truth ignored for too long”, Irish Independent, October 29).

Quite obviously he’s engaging in the same lazy analysis he accuses others of.

I and my friends in west Dublin who

voted for Mr Casey also voted yes in the last two referendums. If we are, as he infers, ‘Trump’ types I doubt we would have done so. Paul Williams undoubtedly regards himself as having some sort of superior insight into our minds.

I suggest that he researches a little deeper before putting pen to paper with more analysis of our minds. Jerry Kiersey Blessington, Co Wicklow
