Southern Sudan Vote Unanimous

Southern Sudanese have voted unanimously to become their own independent nation. 83% of the vote in the south of Sudan has been counted and of that percent 98.6% has voted for the southern half of Sudan to become its own nation. It has been determined that enough people have voted for the results to be valid. The official results will be announced on February 14 and if no major events happen to set back the split between the North and South of Sudan then the South should become its own independent nation in July of 2011.
