This statistic displays the voting intention of Irish residents in the Repeal the Eighth Amendment Referendum, due to take place on Friday 25th May 2018. In all of these surveys the majority of respondents favor repealing the amendment, although the level of support has declined from a high of 60 percent in January to 56 percent in May. The eighth amendment itself limits abortion to cases where the mother's life is at risk, its repeal would give the Irish Parliament the authority to allow abortions in other cases.
Will you vote to repeal the 8th Amendment or vote to retain the 8th Amendment in the constitution?
