If you are keen on unifying the country maybe mention the disgraceful lack of voting rights of Irish citizens, living in their own country but on the wrong side of partition.
And mention it often.
Especially if you are a candidate 🧐

In that context losing would be a monumental blow to all parties.
High stakes.
