Tamavua Laucala Urban (Fijian Communal Constituency, Fiji)

Tamavua Laucala Fijian Urban Communal is a former electoral division of Fiji, one of 23 communal constituencies reserved for indigenous Fijians. Established by the 1997 Constitution, it came into being in 1999 and was used for the parliamentary elections of 1999, 2001, and 2006. (Of the remaining 48 seats, 23 were reserved for other ethnic communities and 25, called Open Constituencies, were elected by universal suffrage). The electorate covered the Tamavua and Laucala suburbs of Suva City.

The 2013 Constitution promulgated by the Military-backed interim government abolished all constituencies and established a form of proportional representation, with the entire country voting as a single electorate.

Election results

In the following tables, the primary vote refers to first-preference votes cast. The final vote refers to the final tally after votes for low-polling candidates have been progressively redistributed to other candidates according to pre-arranged electoral agreements (see electoral fusion), which may be customized by the voters (see instant run-off voting).

In the 2001 and 2006 elections, one candidate won with more than 50 percent of the primary vote; therefore, there was no redistribution of preferences.

gollark: So you calculate the period by checking the time between successive times at which it's pointing vertically down, it looks like?
gollark: I see.
gollark: Isn't the period of a pendulum *meant* to be the same for any angle?
gollark: Is the issue with calculating the period somehow, or with your simulation being wrong?
gollark: Anyway, what do you mean "accurately record its period"?
