Crimea's controversial referendum: Voters flock to the polls

Subscribe to ITN News: http://bit.ly/1bmWO8h Crimea is voting on whether to rejoin Russia or stay with Ukraine but with more autonomy. The referendum has been condemned as "illegal" by Kiev and the West but is backed by Moscow. Since the fall of Ukraine's pro-Moscow President Viktor Yanukovych, Russian troops have in effect taken control of the majority ethnic-Russian region. Voters are expected to support leaving Ukraine, but Crimean Tatars are boycotting the poll. Russia earlier vetoed a draft UN resolution criticising the vote - the only Security Council member to do so. Report by Sophie Foster.
