http://voteyestolisbon.blogspot.com/2008/06/another-look-at-figures.html
Vote Yes to Lisbon. Tuesday, June 10, 2008. Another look at the figures. Blog in haste, repent at leisure. Here's what I wanted to say yesterday. Put in a better. Based on the historic results, a 45% turnout next Thursday would make it difficult for the no side to win. If the result is a no, on that turnout or higher, it would represent a sea-change in Irish opinion on the EU, with a large number of people who have never voted no in a EU referendum before, doing so. I got the figures from here.

http://hemingo.blogspot.com/2008_08_01_archive.html
