It’s actually kind of funny. The accounts with actual statistics on the turnout are reporting it to be really high in Dublin, while the Pro-Repeal side is freaking out because it’s not at 100%.

This is a GOTV technique.

Wicklow at 67% turnout. This is an expected YES constituency.

Might these turnout figures indicate a bigger than expected win for Yes, should that transpire? I.e., something more like 60/40 or 70/30? *fingers crossed*

Maybe, from the looks of it, the ubran area turnout is far outpacing rural. The Yes campaign is probably feeling far more optimistic and confident than the No camp. I’m cautiously optimistic.

RTE is reporting that turnout is beginning to hit 70% in some regions.

Turnout for Kerry, a NO region is only at 50%

Just trying to bring a little life to this thread. Isn’t this what it’s for? Discussing the referendum? Honestly, if it bothers you, nobody is forcing you to click on this thread.

Anyways, Malahide, a town on the north side of Dublin is at 71%

Reported turnout higher on East Cost and Cities than in Rural areas. Signs are pointing to a Yes victory.

There is a second exit poll from RTE which is being announced at some point around 11:30BST - the reason why its so late is that they are using it as a hook to get people to tune in to some show which I suppose is one advantage to not counting the votes tonight!

The amount of handwringing in this thread for such a lopsided result, if the exit poll is anywhere remotely close to true...

Great quote from a decent president, “I've noticed that everyone who is for abortion has already been born.”
