NI Life and Times Survey - 2019 : UISSMARRA

When people are deciding how to vote in an election or referendum, they often take many factors into consideration. Please tell me in what way, if at all, the following issues would affect your decision on how to vote in a referendum on a united Ireland?
Same sex marriage is legal in the Republic of Ireland, but it is illegal in Northern Ireland. In what way might this difference influence how you would vote in a referendum on a united Ireland?
