Exit polls carried out on Sunday after the popular consultation in Santa Cruz reveal that the Autonomous Statute was backed by 80 percent of the voters, reported Bolivian media.
Bolivia's television channel Red Uno's poll stated that 85.9 percent of the voters said "Yes" to the Autonomous Statute, while Unitel's poll says 85 percent agreed.
Meanwhile, the polls carried out by channel PAT and "El Deber" daily indicate that 82.7 percent of the voters agreed.
None of the poll studies reported what percentage of registered voters participated in Sunday's popular consultation, in a voting day marked by violent clashes between government sympathizers and people that oppose Bolvian President Evo Morales' government.
