Tailevu South Lomaiviti (Open Constituency, Fiji)

Tailevu South Lomaiviti 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 comprised the Lomaiviti Archipelago (except Ovalau) and the southern part of Tailevu Province, on the main island of Viti Levu.

gollark: Wait, no, they're probably defined in `core`.
gollark: Fair point about being freestanding. I think + and stuff do obviously work okay in `no_std`, no idea how.
gollark: So they added an `operator` keyword for that one use? Not very consistent.
gollark: You define a function, and it magically gets treated as an operator overload.
gollark: Is the approach of "stick magic function names in as methods" used by any other standard library or language feature?
