I'm crossing my fingers for a larger turnout than the 63% of the population which voted last time. The last referendum saw the Yes vote win 52% to 48% but the result didn't count as a condition of the referendum was that 40% of the total electorate should vote in favour in order to make it valid.

I don't think there's any constraints on this referendum, excepting that you have to have reached puberty.
