2008 San Marino referendum

Four referendums were held in San Marino on 16 March 2008. Voters were asked questions on the voting system,[1] raising salaries in line with inflation,[2] projects,[3] and the abolition of temporary employment contracts.[4] As voter turnout was just 35.36%, all four referendums failed to pass the 32% quorum of registered voters required.
