Voters head to the polls on Friday to have their say in the Presidential Election.
While many people will be familiar with voting in elections, others could be going to the ballot box for the first time. Many of them have only ever really known Michael D Higgins as President of Ireland.
Most of the students who saw Independent candidate Catherine Connolly on the campaign trail at Maynooth University had barely started primary school when President Higgins was first elected in November 2011.
But on Tuesday, a sizeable crowd gathered outside the Students' Union building to hear Ms Connolly speak.
If elected, she has promised to be a president who will "raise your voice".
But what does she have to say to young voters?
