Relying on the large-scale quasiexperiments of European integration, we test whether referndums lead to more supportive voters with data covering more than 20 years. We find suggestive evidence for our theoretical implication that constitutional provisions for referendums lead to citizens more supportive of European integration. Similarly, the results suggest that voters more strongly support European integration immediately after a referendum vote. - Reproduced. aEuropean Union aHug, Simon aComparative Political Studies
