Voters in the two constituencies in Kerry have returned strong No votes in the Lisbon Treaty referendum.

The treaty has been rejected by almost 60% in Kerry North and by more than 57% in Kerry South.

Four other constituencies - Waterford, Sligo-North Leitrim, Tipperary North and Tipperary South - have also reported majority 'no' votes.

Most observers now believe that the treaty will definitely be defeated when the final results are announced this afternoon.
