"You’ll see how Healy Rae, w ill work both night and day.

"For the Kingdom and the country in Dáil Éireann."

"He’s an independent man, he’ll always do the best he can.

"He’ll never let the parties push him over.

"Use your vote on the day, and make it Healy Rae.

"For your problems he’s always got solutions."
