News reports today announce that the votes have been counted and that the people of Iraq have approved their new constitution.

But why is it that, since the day of the vote, there has been virtually no mention of the Iraqi constitutional vote on either network or cable news?????? It seemed to me that this was much more newsworthy than the first vote in Iraq earlier this year.

Did I hear correctly that slightly more than 50% voted against but it took a 2/3 vote against to have rejection? If so, that may be a reason I suppose.
