An independence referendum was held in Nevis on 10 August 1998. The independence referendum failed to pass. Although the majority of voters chose independence, a two-thirds majority was necessary for the referendum to succeed. If it had passed, Nevis would have achieved independence from the Federation of Saint Kitts and Nevis.[1][2]
