Update 9:25pm: Early referendum numbers look bleak for cruise supporters

We have the first numbers from the referendum and it will be miserable reading for the campaigners who have fought so hard for cruise berthing.

With the substantial caveat that these numbers represent just 16% of the Newlands district, it is nonetheless and interesting indicator of how that vote might go. More than 75% are against berthing. Looks like the lottery and ganja – less controversial questions – are currently in the yes column.
