Ha! Polls closed 10 minutes ago. The Irish Times, our paper of record, has conducted an exit poll.
Get a load of this baby:

WOWZERS!
I had told folks to expect a decisive margin, but I had been pegging it at 60:40…
Of course this is just an exit poll, but unlike pre-polls, exit polls have really good accuracy. The official margin of error for this one is +/-1.5%. I think that might be moot in this case.
The official count takes place tomorrow morning. There will be another exit poll by the national TV station later tonight.
Folks, I think we got this.
REPEAL THE 8TH!!!!!!!!!
Sorry I need to go on Twitter now. Byeeeeeeeee!!!!!!!
