Twitter reports high turnout as voting begins

There have been reports of large queues outside polling stations across the country.

Polling is underway at stations across the country and, if Twitter is to be believed, there has been a healthy turnout as people vote on the Marriage Equality and Presidential Age Referendums.

The polls opened this morning at 7am and there have been reports of busier-than-usual stations with queues forming from 6.45 onwards - with the word 'unprecedented' being thrown around by a few.
