Greece overwhelmingly rejects bailout terms - Al Jazeera English

Voters had been asked on Sunday whether to accept or reject the country's multibillion euro bailout deal with the European Union that called for more austerity in exchange for rescue loans.

Figures released by the interior ministry showed the final tally at 61.31 percent voting "No" and 38.69 percent voting "Yes". Participation stood at 62.5 percent."
