Over the past 24 years, residents of the Canton of Geneva have voted on more than 216 referendums, a Swiss record. The high number of votes, attributed to a culture of conflict, contrasts sharply with the low participation in the Valais. Despite the frequent votes, voter turnout in Geneva remains relatively high, averaging 48%. Experts note that the political landscape in Geneva, with its unstable coalitions, may challenge the ideals of direct democracy. As citizens prepare for three more referendums on November 24, 2024, the dynamic continues.
