Britain Has Voted
BREAKING NEWS - 12:15AM
Britain has voted in its historic EU referendum. Also known as the Brexit vote, the EU referendum allowed Brits to decide whether to 'remain' or 'leave' the EU.
However, the vote count did not unfold as expected. Initially, stocks soared and the British pound rallied as voters headed to the polls. After the polls closed, the early results reflected a healthy lead for the 'remain' vote, which is what most experts had forecasted.
But a little after midnight in London, or 7pm in New York, the 'leave' vote won in the district of Sunderland by a shockingly wide margin. And as more and more votes were tallied, more and more districts confirmed that voters wanted to make their Brexit.
The British pound crashed to a 31-year-low and stock market futures plunged.
Just before midnight in New York, the BBC called it in favor of 'leave.'
I cannot believe this and wanted to get this out quickly. More news will follow later this morning....
