Claim: The 2006 Italian constitutional referendum was a proposal of reforms that was held on the 25th and 26th June 2006 and received a majority vote of non-assent(61.29%) and assent(38.71).
Evidence: The reforms were proposed and initially approved during Berlusconi II and III cabinet between October 2004 and November 2005. If ultimately approved by referendum, in continuation with the 2001 constitutional enacted modifications, these reforms would have substantially completed the transformation of Italy from a unitary state into a federal republic. A referendum (plural: referendums or less commonly referenda) is a direct and universal vote in which an entire electorate is invited to vote on a particular proposal and can have nationwide or local forms.
