On the election campaign trail in Mayo West in 1975 where a by-election has Enda Kenny facing the public vote for the first time.
Enda Kenny had been exposed to the world of politics from an early age. His father Henry was a TD for Mayo West until his death in 1975. Enda was chosen by Fine Gael to stand in the subsequent by-election and at that age of 24 was elected on the first count with 52% of the vote. The other candidates on the ballot were Michael McGreal for Fianna Fáil and independent candidate Basil Morahan.
Enda Kenny was elected to office for the first time as TD for Mayo West on 12 November 1975.
This episode of ‘Seven Days’ was broadcast on 11 November 1975.

One of my earliest memories of growing up was when I was about five or six. My mother was away visiting and my father had gone down the feild to bring in the cows. Only myself and my older brother in the house and a knock came to the door, it was a rainy night and when my brother opened the door the man from the telly and a neighbour was standing there smiling at us. He asked us were our parents in, my brother told him dad would be back in 20 minutes. They said he couldn't wait but came in from the rain and stood at the fire to warm up. He told us to let my father know he called and make sure he voted for him. He gave myself and my brother a bag of sweets and plastered us both with his election stickers that had a picture of himself on them while laughing to his own devilment. When he was leaving the neighbour accompanying him said you will remember this for a while. When my farther came home he looked at us and said where did ye get all the Charles Haughey stickers!

It's interesting listening and looking at the people interviewed. The second and third last men seem of their time, but the last man could be interviewed today. Hard to imagine he's speaking 50 years in the past!
