MAINE VOTERS SAY NO TO QUEBEC HYDRO

   Democrats weren't the only losers in elections held Tuesday in the U.S. So was a Canadian-led energy project, rejected by voters in one state referendum.
   This spurned project doesn't involve oil or pipelines or Western Canada.
   It involves a Hydro-Québec transmission between Quebec and New England — and now its future is in doubt.
   Voters in Maine voted about 60-40 to halt construction of the project and force its backers to obtain two-thirds support in the state legislature if they want to complete it.
