Jump To Comment: 7 6 5 4 3 2 1I checked it today and the counter has rolled back.
Yes was at 7000, no at 1300 or something close. So we're still thrashing them. Whats the bets FG will claim victory now!
If it was in dundrum Im sure the yes side would be considerably more.The illac is a real working class area of dublin and those in the surrounding area will be those who will be hit hardest from the treaty of Lisbon
No Pat, it will just go on for a few days to look like a huge Yes win and Enda Kenny will arrive in for a photo opp with the media as he announces an overwhelming victory for his campaign in the ILAC.
What happens when the No votes go above 9,999? Does it go back to zero, or does the machine announce that the No side has won and no more voting is possible?
This must have sounded like a good idea at the time, FG must be feeling pretty silly now
the score is 5042 Yes to 9717 No
as of 6:48pm Fri. 30th
