HomeToVote
#HomeToVote is a Twitter hashtag and social media campaign in Ireland that urged Irish people abroad to return home to vote for same-sex marriage in 2015 and to repeal the country's abortion ban in 2018. In 2015, voters in favour of same-sex marriage used social media to encourage Irish expatriates to return to Ireland to vote in favour of same-sex marriage. The hashtag was tweeted 72,000 times, ranking fifth in Twitter's news trends of the year. In April 2018, abortion rights activists used the hashtag to capitalize on the energy from three years prior, encouraging Irish citizens abroad to return home and vote to repeal the Eighth Amendment, an amendment asserting equal rights between a pregnant woman and her fetus.
