INDEPENDENT STATE OF SAMOA PARLIAMENTARY ELECTIONS OF 4 MARCH 2016 ============================================================== Elections to the Fono (Legislative Assembly) Source: Samoa government elections website The Assembly has 49 members. Of these 47 are elected by ethnic Samoans from constituencies consisting of groups of villages. Electors vote in the constituency containing the home village of their family, rather than the one where they live: thus there is no constituency representing Apia, the capital, since all Samoans there vote in their home villages. The remaining two members are elected on a national basis by Samoan citizens of non-Samoan ethnic origin (mostly Chinese). At this election the seven constituencies which previously elected two members each were divided into single-member constituencies.
