Maine referendum deals blow to Hydro-Québec project

Maine referendum deals blow to Hydro-Québec project

Voters in Maine voted about 60-40 to halt construction of the project and force its backers to obtain two-thirds support in the state legislature if they want to complete it. That's after the most expensive referendum campaign in state history, where ads for and against the plan lined highways and bombarded television viewers. Legal fights are likely.
