| | The '''1979 Piraean national plebiscite''' ({{wp|Greek language|Piraean}}: ''1979 Εθνικό δημοψήφισμα της Πειραεάς'') was a {{wp|referendum}} realised in [[Piraea]] during July 1979, in which the electorate was asked about the continuation of [[Ioannis Christodoulopoulos]] and the {{wp|military junta}} as {{wp|Head of State}} and {{wp|Government}}. |

|
| | ongoing = yes
| | The referendum was conducted a year after the death of [[Konstantinos Athanopoulos]], who ruled the [[Second Piraean Republic]] as a military dictatorship. That same year, the members of the military junta voted Ioannis Christodoulopoulos, who occupied the role of Commander-in-Chief of the Air Force, to be the Premier and sought to renew their term in power through the plebiscite. If the population approved the candidate of the junta and voted "Yes", the military institution would continue exercising as the executive, but if the result proved negative, a newly elected office and legislature would have been needed to be voted. Finally, the "No" to the candidate of the junta won by a 56% of the vote, igniting a process known as "Metapolitefsi" ({{wp|Greek language|Piraean}}: ''Μεταπολίτευση'') or "regime change", which concluded with the [[1980 Piraean general elections|general elections of 1980]]. |
