On October 2, Irish voters go to the polls for a second time to decide whether to adopt the European Union’s Lisbon Treaty - a vote that has cast a mood of nervousness over EU capitals. While everything indicates that the "Yes" side will win, nobody should take Irish voters for granted in the final days of the campaign.

Maynooth, Ireland – On October 2, Irish voters go to the polls for a second time to decide whether to adopt the European Union’s Lisbon Treaty. The mood in EU capitals is one of nervousness as polling day looms, with the future of the EU in the hands of Ireland’s unpredictable voters. On two of the last three occasions that the Irish have been asked to vote on an EU Treaty, they have rejected the proposal.
