An exit poll for Catalan TV station TV3 suggests the pro-secession coalition Junts Pel Sí (Together For Yes) has won the regional elections, but short of an overall majority by itself (68 seats in a 135-seat regional parliament). The coalition would have an overall majority if it joined with the CUP, which also supports secession from Spain. Official election results will be available around 10:30 p.m. Spanish time.
