It's too early to say that. The urban cantons did not finish counting, especially Zurich, Basel, Bern and Geneva. I'd expect that there will be 30% yes votes, but of course there are always surprises.

Would agree if the final result we already know where not 80%. At 55% we may have had a surprise, not in that case.

EDIT: Moreover, provisional results for ZH shows 75% no (French) (http://www.20min.ch/ro/news/suisse/story/Revenu-de-base--les...)

Now it's definitive. The cantonal majority says no, which kills the referendum.
