Second referendum

edit

This article claims that "a second referendum would be called to test the results of the negotiations among white voters." This is not correct. As we say on the article 1992 South African apartheid referendum:

De Klerk told the press that he would interpret a majority "Yes" vote as a mandate to enter into binding agreements with the ANC and other black leaders, without further approval from white voters. He stated that a second referendum to approve the terms of the constitutional settlement would not be necessary unless they differed "substantially" from the government's promises.[1][2]

The statement should be removed. Also the claim that the NP swore they would never accept a proportional electoral system needs a citation. - htonl (talk) 10:30, 11 April 2022 (UTC)Reply
