1947 Swiss referendums

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Three referendums were held in Switzerland during 1947.[1] The first was held on 18 May on a popular initiative for "economic reform and rights concerning work", and was rejected by voters.[1] The second and third were both held on 6 July on revising the articles of the federal constitution covering the economy and a federal law on aged and bereavement insurance.[1] Both were approved by voters.[1]

Background

The May referendum, which was a popular initiative, and the July referendum on amending the constitution, which was a mandatory referendum,[1] both required a double majority; a majority of the popular vote and majority of the cantons.[2] The decision of each canton was based on the vote in that canton.[2] Full cantons counted as one vote, whilst half cantons counted as half.[2] The July referendum on the federal law on aged and bereavement insurance was an optional referendum,[1] which required only a simple majority of votes in favour.[1]
