A constitutional referendum was held in Uruguay on 30 November 1958 alongside general elections.[1] Two proposals for amendments to the constitution were put to voters, but both were rejected.
Proposals
Proposal 1 was put forward by the Ruralista/Herrerista faction of the National Party through the General Assembly, and proposed a presidential system of government, separating the presidential and parliamentary elections, and abolishing the lema system.[1]
Proposal 2 was put forward by the Civic Union through a popular initiative, and proposed introducing a presidential system of government.[1]
