VOICED : Venice votes in a consultative referendum for greater autonomy

The Veneto and Lombardy regions in northern Italy are voting on a referendum for greater autonomy. A positive outcome could lead to more local resources and tax control. Veneto, a wealthy region, seeks improved business conditions but lacks strong separatist desires. The referendum, unlike Spain's, is state-approved. Some secessionists see it as a step towards independence if autonomy isn't granted. However, public interest is low, risking the referendum's credibility.
