Irish stars urge Irish voters to repeal the eighth

By Deirdre Molumby | May 25, 2018

Niall Horan and Sharon Horgan are among the many Irish celebs who have tweeted in favour of repealing the eighth amendment as the country votes in its referendum today.

Saoirse Ronan and other Irish actors previously participated in a togetherforyes.ie video in support of the repeal, while Horgan, Aisling Bea, and Graham Linehan among others banded together on another video for the campaign.

The #hometovote hashtag has been trending all over Twitter today as many Irish people have been returning home to vote in the referendum.

Chris O’Dowd, Marian Keyes, Panti Bliss, and Samantha Mumba were among those who joined Horan on social media today and in the lead-up to the vote.

Cmon Ireland ! This is your day to make another great decision. Please do right by the great women of our nation . ??

Big day for Ireland today. Not normally one for asking people to vote one way or another. But as an Irish son and brother, no state should have the right to tell a woman what to do with her body. #Repealthe8th

I don't normally believe in having feelings. No good comes from them! And I don't endorse them in others either.
But, about ten tweets into #HometoVote and I'm having an Oprah level event pic.twitter.com/PayqqyHvMn
