Swiss voters will decide two popular initiatives on 27 September 2026, each requiring a double majority of the popular vote and cantons under direct democracy rules. Recent gfs.bern polling shows the neutrality initiative—backed by conservative groups seeking to enshrine “armed and perpetual” neutrality, ban most autonomous sanctions, and prohibit military alliances—trailing with roughly 42% support and 54% opposition, consistent with government and parliamentary rejection of its restrictive scope amid ongoing geopolitical tensions. The food initiative, which would promote sustainable domestic production, greater plant-based consumption, and clean drinking water, remains nearly tied at 47% yes to 49% no, with stronger backing among Swiss abroad but limited party endorsements. These positions reflect recent patterns, including the June 2026 rejection of the “No to ten-million Switzerland” population cap by 55-45%, where economic stability and EU ties outweighed immigration concerns. Final campaign shifts or turnout could still alter outcomes before voting concludes.

This market will resolve to “Yes” if the listed referendum is approved under the applicable legal threshold in the specified popular vote. Otherwise, this market will resolve to “No.”
This market will resolve to “Yes” if either the popular initiative or, where applicable, the federal counter-proposal is approved under the applicable legal threshold, regardless of any tie-breaker vote.
If the referendum is officially rescheduled, the same rule applies to the new ballot and its corresponding deadlines. This market will resolve to “No” if, for any reason, the results of the respective vote are not known definitively by the date the subsequent Referendum in Switzerland is scheduled to be held.
The resolution source will be based on a consensus of credible reporting. In the event of ambiguity, this market will resolve solely based on the official certified referendum results published by Swiss government authorities, such as the Swiss Federal Chancellery and the information portal provided by the Swiss authorities (https://www.ch.ch/en/votes-and-elections/). Subsequent litigation, administrative challenges, or failure of any post-approval implementation steps will not be considered.
