"Ireland's Referendum Results: Setbacks in Modernizing Constitution and Redefining Women's Role"

TL;DR Summary
Early indications suggest possible defeats in the two referendums held in Ireland on family and care, with both amendments facing potential rejection. The proposed changes aimed to broaden the definition of family and remove references to women in the home from the Irish constitution. While supporters argued for equality and modernization, opponents raised concerns about unclear language and potential consequences. The results are expected to be announced later, with high 'no' tallies reported and a mixed turnout across the country.
