Eight posters have been removed from their positions in the village while a large billboard was ripped in half. No damage has been noted to any other candidate’s posters.
Commenting on the vandalism Cllr Murray said “It is disappointing that an opponent of Sinn Fein has taken it upon themselves to vandalise our posters.
“This is clearly a childish response to the huge advances being made by Sinn Fein in recent opinion polls.
“The posters were erected and funded by local members of the community who are most affected by government austerity.
“It is on those people’s behalf that I am fighting this campaign.
“Whoever is responsible for removing our posters should know that it will not set us back in anyway whatsoever. We will still knock on every door in Inishowen, having already delivered 30,000 pieces of election literature on belhalf of our three candidates to date.
“We have reported the vandalism to the gardai and I would ask everyone to keep an eye out and let gardai know if they are aware who is responsible. ”
