Yeah, I always get that tingle when I drop the papers in the slot.
No Guards in our station either - they were all probably at the Pats game across the road

no cops at mine either. But then there were no people other than those working, so no real need for them
Edit:
oh, and voted no for the Seanad thing and yes for the other thing

Was talking to my old man this evening, he goes to the same station as me and voted around 4, claimed he was only the 27th person in that day.

I voted, very quite a long day for those working at the polling station should have thought about one of the votes a bit more also should have put something on that six to one bet
pretty good performance from the donegal dollop (donegal equivalent of waterford whisperer)

Not a great turn-out.
Seems the no side is shading it, should know for certain by mid-afternoon.
Nothing on the court of appeal, whatever about the Seanad I hope the court passes.

i was out voting at 8pm, there were actually other voters there at that time.
Not sure if I said it here but during the week I was thinking that no voters might be more motivated to get out for this one.

Given the polls before the vote it would seem that, combined with complacency from would-be 'yes' voters has taken the noose from the seanad's neck.
From RTE's reading of it, Dublin has gone no while a lot of rural areas are going yes.
Ah, there's the angelus.

the big problem with polls as i see them and judging their accuracy is that the "don't know/unsure/won't vote" part are always around 20 - 30% for a referendum while if they were accurate, it should be 60% or so so that this difference has the affect of just making them for the most part meaningless.

i meant purely in the laws of probability and maths laws rather than bookmakers. as some one who doesn't bet because the odds are stacked so much in favour of the bookmakers, this is why and that the risk is far greater than the return, which is now economics theory.
the house always wins in gambling but the question at hand is which house will win the referendum

I voted early yesterday morning. Was told I was the first one in. They were open at least 15/20 mins at that stage.
