As part of WLR's General Election coverage, we have been accompanying Waterford candidates during their canvass trail across the city and county.
One of Sinn Fein's two candidates in the constituency is Councillor Conor McGuinness who is running for the Dail for the first time.
WLR joined Cllr. McGuinness and his campaign on a canvass in Abbeyside this week - whilst party leader Mary Lou McDonald TD was in West Waterford on Saturday to officially endorse the campaign.
Various topics arose on doorsteps in the area including health care, the Gaeltacht, housing and Waterford Airport.
