a referendum is called a will according to the Law
according to the Russian Law ? Ukraine Law?
Or a referendum was not, but was a poll? a referendum has never been, was a poll!
the city of Sevastopol has never been a part of the Crimea either in the times of the USSR or in Ukraine, why it was annexed? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 95.107.108.50 (talk) 12:11, 13 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
And why did people vote the way they did?? Voter Opinion section needed.
This article has the big gaping hole of not explaining why people voted the way they did. Why did people vote to stay with Ukraine, or with Russia? It needs to go a little further than saying "the Ukranian Revolution" and "ethnic Russians". Were they afraid of Ukraine? Did they think they'd benefit from being a part of Russia? This needs to be an entire section, like "Voter Opinion" or something.
