Greek projection: ‘No’ will win with 61 percent

A government-backed “No” in Greece’s bailout referendum is set to win by 61 percent, according to an official projection by the country’s Interior Ministry, AP reports.

Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras halted negotiations with creditors to hold the vote and seek a popular rejection of austerity measures. But European officials have warned a “No” vote could risk Greece’s membership of the eurozone.
