A constitutional referendum was held in Liechtenstein on 10 May 1981.[1] Voters were asked whether they approved of amending article 46, which covered the number of seats in the Landtag, its membership and the electoral system.[2] The proposal, which had been narrowly rejected in a 1975 referendum, was rejected by 52.9% of voters.[1]
