Following a referendum on same sex marriage today, the Republic of Ireland may have voted in favour of same-sex marriage.

An estimated 3.2m people took part in a referendum today to amend the country’s constitution  and allow gay and lesbian couples to marry and government ministers are confident the amendment will sail through as prominent ‘no’ campaigners seem to have conceded defeat even before the result were announced.

According to BBC, the counting started at 09:00 BST on Saturday morning, May 23, and an ‘unusually high’ turnout has been reported.

If the change is approved, the Republic of Ireland would become the first country to legalise same-sex marriage through a popular vote. The Minister for Health Leo Varadkar, who earlier this year openly declared he was gay, said the campaign had been ‘almost like a social revolution’.

A final result is expected later in the evening.
