Poll: Will you vote in the children's referendum?

Concerns have been raised about turnout in the 10 November referendum. Will you be casting your vote?

WITH LESS THAN two weeks until the children’s referendum takes place there are continued concerns that a likely Yes vote and a lack of information about the constitutional amendment will lead to a low turnout.

The Referendum Commission has already raised concerns about the low-level of media coverage that has so far been devoted to the campaign with almost all political parties advocating a Yes vote on 10 November.

Most polls indicate the referendum to amend the constitution will be passed but there is also a high number of people who have said they don’t know enough about what is at stake while those advocating a No vote are worried that voter apathy will lead to the constitutional change that will do more harm than good.

So today, we want to know: Will you vote in the children’s referendum?


Poll Results:

Yes, I'm voting (1294)
No, I'm not voting (1267)
Don't know if I'll vote (636)
