1989 Hungarian referendum

A four-part referendum was held in Hungary on 26 November 1989.[1] Voters were asked whether the President should be elected after parliamentary elections, whether organisations related to the Hungarian Socialist Workers' Party should be banned from workplaces, whether the party should account for properties owned or managed by it, and whether the Workers' Militia should be dissolved.[2] All four proposals were passed, the first narrowly by 50.1% of voters, and the remaining three by 95% of voters. Voter turnout was 58.0%.[2]

gollark: I have metadata done, and I found a good library for reading chapters (may require XHTML parsing, oh bee).
gollark: Well, it reads the metadata, reads each chapter, and dumps them into a SQLite FTS table.
gollark: Not really. I mean, sort of yes, but at that point it would be very slow. My indexer thing will index stuff *once* then search using that.
gollark: `ripgrep` is also performant, however I need to search compressed archives.
gollark: This is to utilize Rust and SQLite3.
