Before the polls open and voting begins,\u00a0Banter<\/a>\u00a0gathers today some interested observers to run the rule over the 2016 general election campaign.<\/p>\n

\"ElectionPostersGE16_large\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Who have been the men and women of the campaign, the troopers who\u2019ve stood out in the last few weeks for various reasons and why?<\/p>\n

For the policy wonks in the audience, did any of the parties produce anything worthwhile or will every single pledge and plan be abandoned before the summer regardless of who wins?<\/p>\n

What are the key moments we\u2019ll remember from the campaign? And the key phrases (other than f***** s*****)?<\/p>\n

Has the stability versus chaos message which was signaled months ago turned out to be the one that mattered or has some other theme taken up the slack?<\/p>\n

How has this election differed from previous ones?<\/p>\n

The question of every election season since Mark Zuckerberg and Jack Dorsey came along: was this really the first ever social media election?<\/p>\n

Was it a good election for the media?<\/p>\n

We\u2019ll also put our necks on the line and predict who will be smiling and who will be grimacing when the votes are counted \u2013 and if this will be the only election here in 2016<\/p>\n

The panel<\/strong>:\u00a0Sinead O\u2019Carroll<\/a>\u00a0(News Editor, TheJournal.ie),\u00a0Hugh Linehan<\/a>\u00a0(Culture Editor, The Irish Times) and\u00a0Jane Suiter<\/a>\u00a0(DCU School of Communications and Institute for Future Media and Journalism)<\/p>\n
