Status Plebiscite

A status plebiscite is a direct democratic vote where people decide on their political or territorial status, such as independence, autonomy, or remaining part of the current entity. It allows citizens to express their preferences on important issues affecting their community or region. These votes are often used in situations where the future governance or boundaries are in dispute or need clear public authorization. The outcome helps guide governments and authorities in making informed decisions that reflect the will of the people.
