    Boards.ie poll

    If you are interested boards has a poll up to find out if their debates have changed peoples minds: It has only been up since this morning

    Was Yes, now No 28.21%
    Was No, now Yes 5.13%
    Wasn't sure but boards helped me make my mind up 20.51%
    Meh, I don't care 46.25%

    http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=2055673041

    Their longer running poll for yes no voting is:
    Yes 45.55%
    No 51.30%
    spoiled 3.15%

    http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showt...p?t=2055615489

    I do not know how relevant these results on forums are to the overall picture but am fascinated at how the internet has so quickly become medium for politics.

    I would imagine pretty deflating to the Yes generation, they seem very new to this medium and are only realising that the no generation were on the internet squabbling away long before this

    (thanks for reminding me of the links Rhonda)

    The boards.ie poll was spot on for Lisbon 1. It gave a 7% No margin on 1700 votes cast.

    Does anyone remember how accurate it was for Nice I and II? Can't find it in their archives. Maybe it's not online any more.

    the mods on the euro forum over there are pro-lisbon. They ban and lock no leaning threads and voters.
