An interesting and paradoxical parallel because whilst your reference certainly makes sense, it is also the case that Blanc had used precisely the same instrument of direct consulation previously... and won it by about 80% or so of the vote if I remember it correctly! It also shows the limitations of trying to use a "referendum" of sorts as a management instrument.
