    What post was ignored?

    A referendum can not brush aside a constitution. A constitution can deem a referendum void if it is deemed unconstitutional. A constitution establishes and protects a democracy. It serves as a check against the whims of the day. It can only be changed in accordance with special requirements, such as a qualified majority and strict procedure.
