Enderronian republic referendum, 1968

A federal referendum was held on Saturday 2 March 1968 in Enderron on whether the country should change from being a constitutional monarchy to a republic with an elected ceremonial president.

The proposal unexpectedly won a large majority (57.48% in favour), against perceived public opinion, and Enderron became a republic with the passing of the Republic of Enderron Act and adoption of a new constitution on 9 August 1970 (now celebrated as Republic Day).

Analysis of results
The "Yes" vote ranged from 47.19 percent in Flinders to 65.42 percent in Tojima. Overall, 12 of the 14 prefectures returned majority "Yes" votes, with only Flinders and Sierra voting "No". The highest "Yes" votes came from inner metropolitan areas and regions with predominantly Asian Enderronian populations. Generally, the strongest "Yes"-voting areas were around the Metro Central Region, Longshan and Tojima. Conversely, votes in opposition to the proposal came predominantly from rural parts of Enderron, as well as many outer suburban areas. Western and northern Enderron (bar Longshan) had the overall lowest "Yes" votes.

Turnout ranged from 75.53 percent in Sierra to 84.27 percent in Janszoon. Westhaven had the highest proportion of spoilt votes, at 2.32 percent.
