    Only 49% of over 65's definitely voting No? I'd expect that to be closer to 75%.

      Yeah I'd say in reality it will be much higher.

            I'm still smarting over East Galway losing by a short head in the 'most conservative' bet in the SSM referendum.

              Only 58% pro-repeal between 25-34 as well. Only 52% of women also.

                  The Irish are childish nimby me fein bastards, with an old religious bent. The fact that nobody actually likes abortion but there are grown up reasons for allowing it, doesn't come into play!

                      It's 63 vs 37 w/o undecideds
                      And undecideds are leaning 2/1 towards repeal.

                      No campaign is getting excited about momentum, but Yes still way out ahead.

                        I literally can't get my head around it. If you're against abortion don't have one. It's great progress from forcing the woman to have the baby, neglect it and throw it in a heap out the back. How brainwashed are people to still value the cunts opinion

                          Undecideds will break towards No and or not showing up. No expect much higher turnout. It shows the campaign is having an effect. Repeal is still ahead at this point but don't think its way out ahead anymore.

                              Neither of these things surprise me in the least.
                              People in their prime with young families are most susceptible to being manipulated by nasty images of chopped up babies while the current generation of over 60's have for the most part seen through the fraud perpetrated on the state by Binchy and his crowd of extreme conservative assclowns.

                                  Show your work. That home to vote thing during marriage ref showed otherwise. What indicates undecideds breaking towards no?

                                      That home to vote campaign which got alot of people to vote illegally? There isn't as much been said about that this time.

                                      Well its a logical conclusion if your not sure about something either don't vote or vote against it.

                                        If we assume the poll is wrong about where the conservative heartland (lol) is, about the number of old people voting no, about how likely those asked said they were to vote and about the leans expressed by undecideds but correct about the low numbers of women voting yes and low numbers of young people voting yes then the Yes side is in big trouble.

                                          Sure that one. Some law breaking in exchange for human rights I'm ok with.

                                          I do think the referendum will be close though. I'm not sure people who don't spend time outside Dublin realise how many backwards cunts we have, young people included.

                                            That general tone is not helping the repeal side at all.

                                              Agreed 1000%, it's not a tone I'd used to convince anyone leaning towards a no vote. Shouting at some old man who doesn't want abortion in the first place that you want him to pay for it too is daft.

                                                              That seems a very unwinnable prosecution, for many reasons.

                                                                      Hopefully this acts as a bit of a wake-up call to Leo et al that can't just take the voting on this as a given. To my mind a huge amount of the campaigning is about persuading the yes voters to vote yes. That doesn't seem like a great approach.
                                                                      2/3 of them are leaning yes. And no need 100% of the undecided.

                                                                      Agree the Yes side has been abysmal though. I guess the choice is so axiomatic to them that they don't feel there's any need to persuade.

                                                                      "Stop shaming women" is such a terrible poster.

                                                                                "Stop shaming women" is such a terrible poster.

It would cut down instances of people being on it twice in different constituencies anyhow. Until they have something mad like instant person verification nationwide across a system using iris scan or something, we are stuck with the register.
