By a nearly 3 to 1 margin on Tuesday, Camden County voters told the County Commission to pull out of its option contract to buy land for a planned spaceport.

The unofficial results, with all 14 precincts counted, was 4,168 opposed to the land purchase and 1,611 in favor.

The landslide vote is not the end of the story, though, as Camden County continues to try to thwart the referendum through the courts.
