Election 2011 – pick the % Seats and Win Wine

Hot on the heels of our Tipperary election competition, we are happy to go national and this one is slightly different. We don’t want you to pick names but rather perecentages. When the dust settles on this election, how will the parties sit? The correct answers are in with a chance to win a wine pack. The more people who enter, the bigger and better the prizes, so feel free to pass it on.
