Yes campaign insists it will not get complacent
=Figures on the Yes side insisted yesterday they would take nothing for granted despite the poll result, and would continue to campaign hard until next Friday. But the No campaign took heart from the fact the gap between the two sides has narrowed – albeit marginally – and said the treaty could still be defeated.
The latest poll, conducted by TNS MRBI for the Irish Times, showed 48% of people are likely to vote Yes, an increase of two points since the last poll earlier this month, while 33% say they will vote No, an increase of four points. The remaining 19% say they don’t know how they will vote. The findings mean the Yes side’s lead has narrowed from 17 points to 15, but that still represents a comfortable margin with less than a week of the campaign left.
