Taoiseach Leo Varadkar said he was pleased that some 75 per cent of Fine Gael supporters in the constituency had voted to Repeal the Eighth.

Tallies in his own polling station at Laurel Lodge in Castleknock reflected the rest of the constituency and returned a 74 per cent vote in favour of repeal.

Speaking at the count centre Mr Varadkar said "what we have seen today really is a culmination of a quiet revolution that's been taking place in Ireland for the past 10 or 20 years".

“This has been a great exercise in democracy,” Mr Varadkar said, “and the people have spoken and the people have said: ‘We want a modern constitution for a modern country, and that we trust women and that we respect them to make the right decisions and the rights choices about their own health care’.”
