Counting of votes in the Presidential election and blasphemy referendum are underway in County Clare
It looks like a landslide victory for Michael D Higgins with two exit polls putting the current President on course to be re-elected with between 56 and 58 per cent of the vote.
It’s expected the blasphemy referendum will pass comfortably with 7 in 10 voting in favour of removing its reference from the constitution
Ballot boxes from across the county are being opened at the Auburn Lodge Hotel.
