A huge congratulations to President Rafael Correa and all Ecuadoreans from Axis of Logic for their resounding victory in yesterday's referendum. President Correa won the referendum on all ten questions between 51 and 57%, depending on the specific measure on which the people voted. This referendum victory should be seen in the context of (and one of the fruits of) their new constitution passed on September 28, 2008. The new constitution acknowledges indigenous rights, peoples' land rights and livelihoods and the rights of nature.
