The third opinion poll of the last weekend of the general election campaign shows a narrow race between Fine Gael and Fianna Fáil.

Millward Brown for the Sunday Independent polled 1,065 people on Wednesday and Thurdsay and has released the findings tonight.

It puts Fine Gael on 27%, Fianna Fáil on 23, Sinn Féin on 19, Independents 13%, Labour on 6, the People Before Profit Anti Austerity Alliance on 5, Social Democrats on 4, the Greens and Renua on 2 each and Socialist Party on 1%.

Earlier this evening a RED C poll for the Sunday Business Post was released with 1,010 people surveyed between Monday and Thursday.

This has Fine Gael on 30, Fianna Fáil on 18, Sinn Féin on 16, Independents on 14, Labour on 8, Social Democrats and Greens on 4 each, the PBPAAA on 3, Renua on 2 and others on 1 percent.

And earlier today a leak of Behavior and Attitudes who polled 1,026 on Monday and Tuesday for the Sunday Times also had Fine Gael on 30, but coalition partners Labour had fallen to 4 points, Fianna Fáil were on 22, Sinn Féin 15, Independs on 10, Independent Alliance on 5, the PBPAAA also on 5, Greens, Renua and Social Democrats all on 3 and Workers Party on 1.

But with polling day so close - all the polls suggest a higher number than normal of undecided or unsure voters and all parties feel it's still all to play for.
