Healy-Rae Company Allegedly Linked to Election Fraud Case, Claims Kerry Senator in Seanad
A Kerry senator has accused a man of working for a business owned by the Healy-Rae family, who recently pleaded guilty to election fraud. The senator raised concerns about voter impersonation and irregularities in the Kerry electoral area during the local and European elections. The issue has sparked calls for a thorough investigation to uphold democracy.
Every dog and divil in Kerry knows that a man who pleaded guilty to election fraud works for a business owned by members of the Healy-Rae family, the Seanad has been told.
Fine Gael senator Mike Kennelly accused a man of being an employee of Healy-Rae Plant Hire, run by the family of Kerry Independent TD Danny Healy-Rae.
In the Seanad, Mr Kennelly highlighted a case of voter impersonation at a Kenmare polling station during the 2024 elections, involving the use of a polling card not in the man's name who was later found to be working for the Healy-Rae company.
Mr Kennelly called for a thorough investigation into the incident, emphasizing the need for transparency and accountability in the electoral process.
He also raised concerns about other irregularities in the Kerry electoral area, including potential criminal wrongdoing related to voter registration forms.
In response, junior housing minister Christopher O'Sullivan stressed the importance of trust in the electoral system and the need to uphold democracy.
Danny Healy-Rae has been contacted for a response to the allegations.
