Exit poll: The post referendum thread. No electioneering.

Ozymandius2011 · 25-05-2018 9:29am #1

This is for people who have already voted in the referendum. How did you vote? I voted yes.

Mod: This thread is little more than a survey about how you voted. Please don't the ins and outs of abortion.

Mod: This is not a reiteration of the previous 8th threads. If you were threadbanned from those, you are not threadbanned here.

25-05-2018 9:32am

The_Kew_Tour · 25-05-2018 9:32am

Yes

Neon_Lights · 25-05-2018 9:32am

This is going to turn into a herbal essences ad " yes, yes, YES, YESSS!!!"

Ubbquittious · 25-05-2018 9:34am

If you bring ID with you to the polling station you don't need your polling card! I voted YES!

Oh sh1t, I voted in your poll but haven't actually voted yet, sorry for messing up your poll

Like someone who voted 'No' is going to risk saying so here.

banie01 · 25-05-2018 9:36am

Voted yes.
My worry is this poll will be skewed by the generally "liberal" leaning of many boards users.
The RTE exit poll tonight will be interesting especially to compare it's projection with the final tallies.

From discussing the topic with friends/family/colleagues, anyone expressing a no opinion has been conspicuously rare.
I do worry that many are saying one thing while intending to vote another.
It's hard to take and a hold a contrary opinion in the age of social media and I fear many may keeping their powder dry and will vote no.

Aren't you an edgelord.

Voted yes myself. Polling stations were a lot emptier than I expected.

They've no problem doing it on all other forums of media. I think Waterford Whispers had a good article addressing your concerns: http://waterfordwhispersnews.com/2018/05/24/were-being-silenced-no-side-confirm-during-1145th-media-appearance/

I put an "X" in the box and then put the piece of paper in the big lock box

I said maybe.....I'll decide over the weekend.

Mod: Let this thread be little more than a survey about how you voted. Please don't let it descend into another thread about abortion. Another thread will be opened tonight.

That's exactly whats happening the liberal extreme left has a tendancy to shout down and dehumanize anyone that doesn't agree with them as a Nazi or Trump or some other b****x.

Was walking down henry street last week and some yungwan on a loudspeaker had been screaming 14,000 women had been prosecuted for having abortions abroad in the last year, and her harem of beats cackling around her.

If a comment like mine stops some from commenting, then I doubt they'd comment on any issues!

When one makes their views public, they are open to criticism. That's not limited to here!

LirW · 25-05-2018 9:46am

I clicked Yes to see the poll, but I can't vote, it would be cool if there would be a third option so see the outcome of the poll!

Neon_Lights · 25-05-2018 9:47am

^This is Why

theyoungchap · 25-05-2018 9:47am

Was a referendum ever so "done to death" by both sides and the media. I can't really remember the divorce referendum.

Am I alone in saying "thankfully polling day has arrived" and can't wait till next week when it is all over?

superman28 · 25-05-2018 9:48am

Amazingly I can't vote.. I was deleted from the Fingal Register. (their words) just found out yesterday.

Apparently, my parents filled out a form stating that its just the 2 of them living at their address (true) last year. So my name was taken off the Fingal register,, I was not notified of this... , Only when my voting card didn't arrive at my parents house did I check,, quickly tried to sort it out,, but was too late as cards arrived after cut off point of May 8th... lady said in Fingal Co Co there are loads of similar cases.. as you can imagine f**king fuming..

So what you want is a "I spoiled my vote" option?

ewc78 · 25-05-2018 9:48am

fergus1001 · 25-05-2018 9:48am

You certainly didn't live up to your username if you didn't check that out weeks/months ago......

A very reluctant yes.

Exit poll: The post referendum thread. No electioneering.

How did you vote (if you already have) in the Abortion referendum? 1780 votes
