***SEE MORE PHOTOS AFTER THE CUT*** Majority they say! Carries the vote. This is a history made. Ireland is now the first country in the World to legalise same-s€x marriage by majority vote.
The result of the voting– 1,201,607 Yes, 734,300 No – comes little more than two decades after homosexuality was made legal in Ireland, marking a seismic shift in the country's social attitudes.
Ms McEvoy, 39, who was instrumental in the Yes campaign as chair of the National LGBT Federation, said: "We haven't imagined this as part of our life because it hasn't been an option. When civil partnerships came in in 2010 it was asking people to participate in their own discrimination in order to commit to the person they love. I couldn't celebrate that. But this is different."
