Swiss voters appear to reject proposal to cap population at 10 million

Projections indicate about 55% opposed the measure, which would have imposed strict immigration controls. Concerns over negative impacts on the economy and relations with the EU influenced the decision as Switzerland's population growth continues to outpace neighboring countries.
