A referendum on the policies of Ion Antonescu was held in Romania on 5 March 1941.[1] Under pressure from Nazi Germany, King Carol II had appointed Antonescu as Conducător on 6 September 1940. Voting was done orally, with voters answering yes or no. Silence was taken to be a "yes".[1] The referendum was approved by 99.9% of voters.[1] A second referendum on Antonescu's policies was held in November.
