1986 Nauruan parliamentary election
Parliamentary elections were held in Nauru on 6 December 1986.[1] As there were no political parties, all candidates ran as independents. However, the Parliament elected had two opposing groups holding nine seats each, resulting in a deadlock. To resolve the issue, Parliament was dissolved on 30 December, prompting fresh elections in January.[1]

gollark: Correction, 2.5 years.
gollark: Hmm, it seems that I find myself compiling icecast because some bee didn't put the new features I need *which were implemented two years ago* into a stable release.
gollark: Wow, icecast was a great idea. It's basically eliminated the issue where an OIR™ tab would eventually run a bit behind the server.
gollark: I prefer x += 1, the ++ things are vaguely beeoid.
gollark: The cool languages almost all seem to be horribly convoluted. Also many of the uncool ones.
