The three candidates were all asked about their views on the presidency on RTE Radio, in the first series of broadcast interviews after the deadline for nominations closed at noon on Wednesday.
The Irish Presidential election at the end of October was one of the points of conversation. This week, nominations for the position closed, and three names will be on the ballot paper: Heather Humphreys, a former Irish Government Minister, is supported by her party Fine Gael, Jim Gavin, a former Dublin Football manager, is supported by Fianna Fáil, and Catherine Connolly, who is an independent TD from Galway.
Fianna Fail candidate Jim Gavin and Fine Gael candidate Heather Humphreys filed their nomination papers last Friday. Independent candidate Catherine Connolly, who is supported by left-wing parties Sinn Fein, the Social Democrats, Labour, People Before Profit and the Greens, submitted the documentation on Tuesday.
