Plebiscite in Austria

The scheduled Plebiscite has come and gone. Legal voters approved of the Anschluss at 99.7%. 12,000 Voters voted against the Anschluss.

4% of the population are Gypsies and Jews. They were recently disenfranchised. When Austria united with Germany, many of the Nuremberg laws that were passed in 1935 have gone into affect in Austria.
