Poll puts Sinn Féin level with Fianna Fáil to win election

Sinn Féin and Fianna Fáil are neck and neck to win the general election, according to the latest opinion poll.

Sinn Féin now lies in joint first place with Fianna Fáil in terms of party support as Fine Gael has slipped back, a dramatic new opinion poll reveals.

The latest Business Post/Red C poll are likely to heap pressure on Taoiseach Leo Varadkar and his Fine Gael team which has faltered since the start of the campaign and as things stand look set to lose power.
