2002 Micronesian constitutional referendum

A constitutional referendum was held in the Federated States of Micronesia on 27 August 2002.

Voters were asked whether they approved of 14 separate amendments to the country's constitution.

To be approved, the proposal required at least 75% of voters in at least three of the four states to vote in favour.

[1] On 8 March 2002 President Leo Falcam proposed holding a referendum on two proposals (electoral system and direct election of the president and vice president) on 27 August and the remaining eleven proposals to be held alongside the 2003 parliamentary elections.

[1] However, he changed the plans on 19 April so that all 14 proposals would be put to voters on the same day.
