{{Politics of Switzerland}}Three referendums were held in Switzerland during 1900.[1] The first was held on 20 May on a federal law on health, accident and military insurance, and was rejected by 69.8% of voters.[1] The second and third were held on 4 November on introducing proportional representation for National Council elections and the direct election and increase in members of the Federal Council.[1] Both were rejected by a majority of voters and cantons.[1]BackgroundThe referendums on the changes to the National and Federal Councils were popular initiatives,[1] which required a double majority; a majority of the popular vote and majority of the cantons.[2] The decision of each canton was based on the vote in that canton.[2] Full cantons counted as one vote, whilst half cantons counted as half.[2] The insurance referendum was an optional referendum,[1] which required only a majority of the public vote.[2] ResultsAccident, health and military insurance| Choice | Votes | % | | For | 148,035 | 30.2 | | Against | 341,914 | 69.8 | | Blank votes | 5,636 | – | | Invalid votes | 1,765 | – | | Total | 497,350 | 100 | | Registered voters/turnout | 745,228 | 66.7 | | Source: Nohlen & Stöver |
