The plebiscite was the only and urgent remedy against anarchy. Believe me.

The Puerto Rican Legislative Assembly then voted to hold another plebiscite in 1998.

The results of a 1993 plebiscite, with virtually identical options to those in the 1967 plebiscite, were 48.4 per cent for the status quo (Commonwealth), 46.2 per cent for statehood and 4 per cent for independence.

The plebiscite was postponed, primarily because eligible voters had not been identified and registered.64

The mandated plebiscite would be conducted either in late 1999 or early in the year 2000.

I have the very great honor, to announce the result of the plebiscite of our community.

Immediately on 2 February 1987, a new Constitution took effect following approval by the people consulted by plebiscite.

Macedonian President Gjorge Ivanov, an opponent of the plebiscite on the name change, has said he will disregard the vote.

The organization of the 1998 plebiscite continued as scheduled, despite the failure of Congress to bind the United States Government to the results.

No election, referendum or plebiscite held unilaterally by the colonial or occupying authorities constituted a free expression of the will of the people.

The plebiscite, which was scheduled to take place on 2 November 2004, was postponed, primarily because eligible voters had not been identified and registered.

However, on 2 November 2004, Guam was scheduled to hold a plebiscite on self determination to determine the future political status of the island.

Nor was it acceptable that a Government merely rule by plebiscite or conduct consultations, seeking to provide a substitute for genuinely democratic periodic elections.

Without the immediate return of sovereignty to the people of Puerto Rico, no referendum, plebiscite or constituent assembly could legitimately constitute a process of self determination.

The representative of the United States had referred to plebiscites, but what value could a plebiscite have when it was conducted in an occupied Territory? He called upon the Government of the United States to dismantle its military bases in Puerto Rico, withdraw its troops from the island and then hold a plebiscite, so that the people of Puerto Rico could express its opinion in genuine freedom.

After the 1998 plebiscite, the President of the United States, William J. Clinton, stated that he would work with Congress and leaders in Puerto Rico to clarify the status issue.

In the year 1860, 22nd October, in Donnafugata, at six p.m., the municipal electoral committee met to examine the votes given in the plebiscite by the population of this community.

In February 1997, the Young Bill was introduced in the United States Congress, seeking to make the results of the proposed 1998 Puerto Rican plebiscite binding on the United States Government.

4. Calls for the immediate holding of a plebiscite in Jammu and Kashmir in accordance with the relevant resolutions of the Security Council to enable the people to decide their future

The United Kingdom allegedly refused to implement the plebiscite, fearing that the Ambazonian Prime Minister would come under communist influence and would nationalize the Cameroon Development Cooperation (CDC), in which Britain had invested 2 million.

When a plebiscite was held in 1967, offering inhabitants the choice between independence, becoming a part of the United States or maintaining the Commonwealth status, the latter option was upheld by 60.41 per cent of voters.

30. The Chamorro people was asking the United States of America to desist from trying to remove Guam from the list of Non Self Governing Territories until that people had made itself heard in a plebiscite on self determination.

His delegation further believed that the free and voluntary choice by the population of the Non Self Governing Territories should be made on the basis of a referendum or plebiscite in each Territory under the supervision of a visiting mission.

Perhaps to assuage political fears and considerations of international law any plebiscite in the Kurdish region should, initially, have only a consultative status. But it will give legitimate expression to the will of a people long oppressed and entitled to their place in the sun.

The president is nominated by two thirds of the People's Assembly, and endorsed in a plebiscite that allows only for a simple Yes or No. A simple majority of the ballots is required to win a six year term, which is renewable indefinitely by the same process.

76. Various representatives of the Catholic Church, from Pope John Paul II to Bishop Belo of Dili, had constantly called for respect for human rights and continued dialogue involving all parties, especially the Timorese. Bishop Belo had supported the idea of allowing the Timorese to decide their future through a plebiscite.

75. During the 1993 plebiscite, the authorities had cynically pointed to the quot benefits quot of commonwealth status, but had failed to point out that Puerto Rico was a source of profit for United States corporations and a staging ground for United States policing operations in Latin America and the Caribbean.

While the largely Muslim British Northern Cameroon voted to join Nigeria, the largely Christian British Southern Cameroon, in a United Nations plebiscite held on 11 February 1961, voted in favour of joining a union with the Republic of Cameroon, within which Ambazonia would preserve its nationhood and a considerable degree of sovereignty.

The Commission s general objective was to determine, by means of a plebiscite on political status, the desire of the Chamorro people as to its future political relationship with the United States and to transmit that desire to the President and Congress of the United States and the Secretary General of the United Nations.

Recalling further that the United Nations Security Council had declared that the creation of a Constituent Assembly or the holding of any elections in Jammu and Kashmir by the Indian Government cannot be a substitute for a free and impartial plebiscite mandated by the Security Council to determine the will of the people of Kashmir,

In terms of Chile s major policies, however, continuity is almost certain to prevail, even if Enríquez Ominami wins. The center left coalition that defeated Pinochet (in a 1988 plebiscite and his presidential candidate in the 1989 election) has been wise enough to keep, and in some cases deepen, the sound free market policies inherited from the military government.

He emphasized the negative impact of United States immigration policies on the native Chamorro inhabitants of Guam, particularly with regard to immigration to Guam since 1990. In January 1997, the Guam legislature by law established the Guam Commission on Decolonization and mandated a plebiscite on the choice of political status in accordance with relevant United Nations resolutions.

3.1 The author claims that the illegal annexation of Ambazonia by the Republic of Cameroon denies the will of Ambazonians to preserve their nationhood and sovereign powers, as expressed in the 1961 plebiscite and confirmed by a 1992 judgement of the High Court of Bamenda, thereby violating his people's right to self determination under article 1, paragraph 1, of the Covenant.

2.

The plebiscite would have asked the Territory's indigenous people, defined by law as persons or descendants of persons who were in Guam at the time of the United States ratification of the Treaty of Peace with Spain in 1898 and or persons or descendants of persons who received United States citizenship pursuant to the Organic Act of 1950, to choose between statehood, independence or free association with the United States.

4.4 Insofar as the author claims that his and his people's right to self determination has been violated by the State party's failure to implement the 1961 plebiscite, Restoration Law 84 01, the 1992 judgement of the High Court of Bamenda, or by its subjugation of the Ambazonians, the Committee recalls that it does not have competence under the Optional Protocol to consider claims alleging a violation of the right to self determination protected in article 1 of the Covenant.
