There are 41 polling stations for the By-Elections on 3 November to elect three new People's Representatives to the Tonga Legislative Assembly, in the constituencies of Tongatapu 4, Tongatapu 6 and Tongatapu 7.

Electoral Commissioner Pita Vuki said today that polling time will run from 9:00am to 4:00pm.

A total of 13 candidates are contesting the parliamentary seats vacated by Tatafu Toma Moeaki for Tongatapu 4, Poasi Mataele Tei for Tongatapu 6, and Sione Sangster Saulala for Tongatapu 7. Their elections were voided by the courts, resulting in their unseating, after they were unsuccessful in their appeals against certification of offences of bribery under the Electoral Act.

On Thursday 3 November the 41 polling stations will open, mainly on Tongatapu, with a few on the outer islands for voters' of these constituencies who are there.
