Early Irish Results

++The Catholic think-tank The Iona Institute, which heavily supported the No campaign, tweeted out" To the Yes campaign. Good job."

++The lowest approval has been two small towns at 52%. Dublin West's final results were 71% yes,29% no, and a 64% turnout.

++The percent voting on the Presidential term referendum is slightly higher nationally than the same-sex referendum.

++Election officials and government officials say that the the difference today is the massive turnout of the young and emigrants flying home to vote. "We finally gave the young something to believe in and they turned out."
