The majority of people interviewed for a Xarabank survey on divorce said they still did not know what their vote in the May 28 referendum is going to be.

The survey found that the number of people who said they will be voting Yes for Divorce dropped from 56.3 per cent in October to 28.3 per cent this month.

Another drop, albeit, not so sharp, was among those who said they will be voting no, - from 31.7 per cent in October to 25 per cent this month.

A total 6.7 per cent, up from 1.3 per cent in October, said they will not be voting while a staggering 40 per cent said they did not know what their vote was going to be.

The survey found that separated people and people who are cohabitating were the only groups to register an absolute majority in favour of divorce.

A major shift was registered in the group of married people.

In October, 53.5 per cent of married people were in favour of divorce but this month only 23.8 per cent of married people said they would vote for divorce in the coming referendum.

The survey also found a correlation between the frequency of mass attendance and the voting intentions in the divorce referendum.

The more that are against the introduction of divorce are the ones who attend mass most regularly.

The groups that registered a majority against divorce are the ones who attend mass daily or more than once a week.

Respondents were asked how they voted in the last general election.

Their reply was cross tabulated with how they would vote in the divorce referendum. Only PL voters retained an absolute majority (52.3 per cent) in favour of divorce. 44.8 per cent of PN voters said they would vote no. The majority of AD voters, 60 per cent, still did not know how they would vote.
