The article from the Irish Mirror discusses Sinn Féin's performance in the recent general election, highlighting the party's unexpected challenges and the public's reaction. Despite initial expectations of a strong showing, Sinn Féin faced criticism for its campaign strategy and candidate selection, which some argue led to a less than stellar result.
