The referendum to ban coke in Maynooth has been defeated by 621 votes to 397

This means that Coca Cola will continue to be sold in the Student bar and the SU shop. Many of the executive in the Union were happy with the results as the Union is in severe financial dificulties. The large number of signatures needed to be collected means that it will be unlikely that another referendum will be held.
