		You said 1922 was a legitimate representation earlier on in this thread and now you are moving it to 1923.
		How do you square the fact that the core of the 1923 TDs elected to Cumann na nGaedhael were the same people who were elected as Pro-Treaty Sinn Fein TDs in 1922.
		As Cumann na nGaedhgael was made up primarily of Pro-Treaty Sinn Feiners, then surely you will have to move your democratic election further on down the path than 1923.
