General elections will be held in Tonga by 30 November 2025.[1]
Electoral system
[edit]The Legislative Assembly of Tonga has up to 30 members, of which 17 are directly elected by first-past-the-post voting from single-member constituencies. The island of Tongatapu has ten constituencies, Vavaʻu three, Haʻapai two and ʻEua and Niuatoputapu/Niuafoʻou one each.[2] Nine seats are held by members of the nobility who elect representatives amongst themselves.[3] The Cabinet formed by a Prime Minister may include up to four members not elected to the Assembly, who then automatically become members of the legislature.[3]
