Australians have had their say, with 61.6% of the nation voting Yes to legalising same‑sex marriage.

The final count was 7.8 million responses in support of same‑sex marriage and 4.9 million against.

The final number of responses was 12.727 million people, representing 79% of eligible Australians.

This means that same-sex marriage could be legalised in Australia by Christmas if the Turnbull government sticks to its promise.
