Poll: Were you surprised by the results of the exit polls?

Two polls put the Yes vote at 68% and 69.4%.

THE RESULTS OF two exit polls have suggested that the Yes side in the Eighth Referendum is set to win by a huge margin.

Ballot boxes across the country were opened at 9am as counting of the votes got underway.

Last night a poll for the Irish Times suggested that the result of the referendum is 68% in favour of yes, while one for RTÉ estimates that 69.4% voted yes.

So today we’re asking, were you surprised by the results of the exit polls?


Poll Results:

Yes  (3768)
