1960年南非共和制公民投票
在1960年10月5日,南非舉行了一場改制為共和國的公民投票(南非語:,英語:)。1948年掌權、由阿非利卡人支配的右翼國民黨是明確的共和主義者,認為由伊莉莎白二世擔任國家元首是英帝國主義的餘孽[1]。隨後,國民黨政府便舉行了南非聯邦是否要成為共和國的公投。此次投票僅限白人參與,最終以52.29%的得票驚險通過[2][3]。1961年5月31日,南非共和國正式成立。

經過
「支持」陣營
支持共和國的人士著重於南非面對英國在非洲的非殖民化、前比屬剛果獨立後爆發血腥內戰以及白人團結的需要,維沃爾德警告說,這可能會在南非引起類似混亂[4]。其還認為,南非與英國君主制的聯繫導致南非地位混淆不清,一則廣告宣稱:“讓我們現在成為一個真正的共和國,而不是保持在模棱兩可之間”[5]。
一張宣傳海報在英文版上使用“重新團結並保持南非白人,現在是共和國”(To re-unite and keep South Africa white, a republic now)的口號,而在南非語中的口號則為“現在是我們的共和國,保持南非白人”(Ons republiek nou, om Suid-Afrika blank te hou)[6]。另一張海報上有兩隻手,口號是“你的人民,我的人民,我們的共和國”,有時候會把一隻手畫成黑色,象徵自由黨為非種族主義政黨[7]。
