Fiji Election results in the North

from Peceli
It's about 4 p.m. Australian time and so far the votes in the Fiji election are about half-way. Anyone interested will be looking up on-going results in Fijilive, Fijivillage, FijiTV or Fiji Times. The results so far have been predictable in the communal seats.

I am putting some of the seats relevant to Labasa and the North here.

from Wendy
And as expected, Posece Bune won the Labasa Open seat for the Labour Party.

The results show that very few people are interested in the New Alliance or even Federation Party and just block-voted. It's about 7.30 p.m. Australian time and it looks like SDL will win at this stage, but it still could be close. It depends upon the Open seats now.

The Suva seat - Samabula/Tamavua Open where Peni Baba is standing for SDL is interesting and has not yet been won in the first round so goes to preferences.

updated Wednesday afternoon

Well it's all over bar the shouting and it has been so predictable, though I would have thought a few moderates would have got in.

Samabula/Tamavua went to the wire with a young Labour lass winning, so good luck to her. Peni Baba might be given a Senate seat now. There are not many women elected and I think ethnicity has been so much in the forefront that another kind of categorisation - men and women - has been neglected.
