Referendums

A referendum is a direct vote in which the electorate decides on a specific proposal or issue, often related to constitutional changes, laws, or important political matters. Unlike regular elections where representatives are chosen, a referendum allows citizens to express their opinion on a single question, which can lead to significant changes in governance or policy. The outcome is typically binding, meaning that the government is expected to implement the decision. Referendums are used in various countries to gauge public support for major issues, reflecting the will of the people on critical decisions.
