A clear majority of Spaniards voted in favour of the EU constitution in a referendum, an exit poll suggests.

Just France to worry about now I guess....

Also Ireland might vote no, but they'll just keep running the referendum over and over until they vote yes.

Edited: I forgot that the UK was going to hold a refendum on this... usually the parliament just votes on EU treaties. We can look forward to a lot of mud-slinging in the tabloids and a lot of simplistic, dogmatic language from both the "yes" and "no" sides.
