Moldova says 'no' in vote on joining EU: partial results - The election commission said that 55% of voters from the partial count had said "no" to the proposal, while almost 45% had said "yes."
Ahead of the referendum, surveys showed around 55% of Moldovans would support the move
Pro-Russian parties had urged people to vote "no" or boycott the vote altogether.
@ecksmc Russia certainly has a solid track record of influencing referendums and elections in post-Soviet countries. I just didn't expect them to be so fortunate to pull it off in the U.S. too. Guess we underestimated their reach...
