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: People's programs really need to *not* just download the master branch of skynet's code. `enchat3` new installs are now broken because the current client up there doesn't work with the skynet server, pending user feedback.
gollark: 1. introspection modules negate many uses for it2. claims mean it's harder to retrieve failing ones, place waypoints, and set safe paths
gollark: Don't worry, all it did was load up stuff from the web, I can rewrite it.
