A referendum on electoral redistributions in South Australia was held on 9 February 1991. The proposal put to voters would require the South Australian Electoral Districts Boundaries Commission to redistribute the electoral boundaries following every election, and to consider a broader range of criteria when reviewing boundaries: specifically, "to draw the boundaries in such a way that the party with the majority of (the two-party) vote would also win the majority of seats and so be able to form government". The proposals were accepted by a wide margin.Brooks David Gill Zoe Weste John South Australian Referenda, 1896-1991 http://www.parliament.sa.gov.au/Library/ReferenceShare/Documents/ResearchPaper7_2008.pdf Parliament of South Australia 16 August 2016 dead https://web.archive.org/web/20150409141249/http://www.parliament.sa.gov.au/Library/ReferenceShare/Documents/ResearchPaper7_2008.pdf 9 April 2015
