Voters in Kenya rejected the country's proposed constitution by a wide margin, Agence France-Presse reported Tuesday. The outcome dealt a major blow to the country's president. Turnout among the country's 11.6 million eligible voters was estimated to be at 60%. One major reason for the constitution's failure was the fact that Christian church leaders believed the document could legalize abortions and marriage for same-sex couples. Monday's vote was held after a campaign marred by violence in which at least eight people were killed and rallies were routinely disrupted, the wire service reported. (Advocate.com)
