Lami (Open Constituency, Fiji)

Lami Open is a former electoral division of Fiji, one of 25 open constituencies that were elected by universal suffrage (the remaining 46 seats, called communal constituencies, were allocated by ethnicity). Established by the 1997 Constitution, it came into being in 1999 and was used for the parliamentary elections of 1999, 2001, and 2006. It covered the Town of Lami, in the greater Suva metropolitan area.

gollark: You can describe them as a 4-bit string IIRC.
gollark: There are something like... 16 stateless deterministic two-input binary logic gates, and maybe 81 or so ternary equivalents.
gollark: Many more logic gates, some of which are useful.
