Cullen admits mistake over e-voting debacle

TRANSPORT Minister Martin Cullen has finally conceded he got it wrong on electronic voting.

“I suppose with hindsight, yes, I might have dealt with it differently,” he said last night of the manner in which he handled the issue. “I’ll put my hands up.”

Mr Cullen’s willingness to acknowledge mistakes is in stark contrast to the Taoiseach, who only last week attempted to blame the opposition parties for the debacle, saying they had set out to find fault with the €52 million system.
