The latest opinion poll on the Lisbon Treaty shows a dramatic fall in support for the No side.
The tns/MRBI poll in today’s Irish Times shows that just 29% of respondents would vote No in a referendum, while 52% would vote Yes.
Over 53% of voters voted against the treaty last June.
There remains a substantial Don’t Know vote at 19%. If this is excluded, support for the treaty stands at 64.5% with 35.5% opposed to it.
Even if the don't knows were all to vote No, the Yes side would still retain a 4% lead.
While the Yes side is furthest ahead in Dublin with a 31 point lead, it is also ahead in all other regions.
The lowest support is in Munster with a 19 point lead.
