Gabon votes in post-coup constitutional referendum

More than a year after Gabon's ruler Ali Bongo was toppled in a military coup, Gabon's citizens are voting Saturday in a constitutional referendum hailed as a "major turning point" by the junta. The new constitution would require presidential candidates to be exclusively Gabonese and have a Gabonese spouse, eliminating Bongo's ability to return to power.
