Ireland is about to hold a historic referendum on repealing the country's Eighth Amendment, which in effect bans abortion.
As international interest in the vote has grown, it's being seen as a test case for electoral integrity.

It's @karinagould's first day back in Parliament after taking a 10-week maternity leave. The federal cabinet minister is bringing her son to work, balancing motherhood and politics.
