Voting at the referendum on renaming the Republic of Macedonia ended on Sunday at 19:00 local time. This is reported by UNN.

According to data published on the official website of the State Election Commission, the turnout rate at 18:30, local time, was 34.59%.

If the final voter turnout is less than 50%, in accordance with Macedonian law, this may indicate a failure of the referendum. According to the law, for a plebiscite to be recognized as successful it is necessary that more than half of the total number of voters, which is more than 1.8 million people, vote..

Citizens were asked to answer one question: "Do you support membership in the EU and NATO by adopting an agreement between the Republic of Macedonia and the Hellenic Republic?".
