Official provisional results of the referendum:
Yes 2,020,144(90 %)
No 176,566(7,8 %)
Turnout: 2,262,464 (using the 2015 regional election as a benchmark, 41% turnout)
Some votes still to be counted, like 50 000 or so.
That's pretty low turnout, if I'm not wrong. Wasn't it projected to be higher?
Well, the Spanish Government did everything it could to stop the election, right? I'd think that confiscating ballot boxes and ballots, surround polling locations with riot police, and arresting election officials might have cut down on turnout a little.
