Six referendums were held in Switzerland in 1986.[1] The first was held on 16 March on joining the United Nations , but was rejected by 76% of voters.[2] The next three were held on 29 September on popular initiatives on culture and vocational education and a federal resolution on the domestic sugar economy. All three were rejected, including the counter-proposal to the culture initiative.[1]
The final two referendums were held on 7 December on popular initiatives "for the protection of tenants" and "for a just taxation of truck traffic." The tenant proposal was approved, whilst the vehicle taxation initiative was rejected.[3]
