Next Thursday, on July 8th, voters in Dublin Bay South will cast their votes in a byelection widely seen as the first major electoral test for the coalition Government. Fine Gael's James Geoghegan is currently in the lead based on Irish Times/Ipsos MRBI poll results. But the survey, carried out over the weekend, also shows Labour's Ivana Bacik may still be in with a chance of taking the seat.
Sorcha Pollak talks to The Irish Times political editor Pat Leahy about the race for the Dublin Bay South seat, the main issues dominating the debate and the national significance of next week's vote.
Produced by Declan Conlon, Jennifer Ryan and Suzanne Brennan.
Presented by Sorcha Pollak.
