"Ayes" vote to the European treaty of Maastricht : geographical variations.
Richard Kleinschmager
If the French referendum which took place on 20 September 1993, on the treaty of Maastricht, resulted in a small majority of "ayes" on the national level, nearly two thirds of the Alsatian electorate voted favourably. Yet the analysis of the geographical distribution of the Alsatian vote, on the local scale, brings out a certain geographical differentiation.
In particular, this analysis brings out quite an opposition between the North and the South of Alsace, on either side of Colmar. It also underlines the relatively consistent vote of the electorate in a big urban region of Strasbourg. In Alsace, as elsewhere, socio-economical factors seem to have played a determining part in the choice made by voters.
