Age Action is urging all older people to make their voices heard in the run up to the local and European elections, and Dail by-elections, on June 5.

Voters aged over-65 currently account for 17% of the electorate. Based on past voting patterns, they are also the most likely age group to vote on polling day. This makes older voters a force to be reckoned with.

It is vital that when candidates come calling that older voters clearly state what their issues and priorities are. Speak out and make your voice heard!
