SEPTEMBER 2022 CHAIR OF THE ASSEMBLY ELECTION
CERTIFICATION OF RESULTS

---

WHEREAS a round of voting was held between the days of 06 Sep 2022 and 09 Sep 2022, let this proclamation serve as an official count of the vote and official validation of the result after all votes have been properly counted and considered.

RESULT

• The Haughtherlands: 81.48% (Elected Chair of the Assembly)
  
  
• Re-Open Nominations: 18.52%

[IMPORTANT] Legislators who cast private ballots and received their individual vote tracking codes are kindly asked to increase the number of their code by one (e.g. if the code was RCA001, consider their new code to be RCA002). This is due to an unfortunate counting error that must be remediated.

* The votes of Blot, Belschaft, and a legislator who cast a private ballot, were found to contain approvals for both a candidate and the option to re-open nominations and, being invalid, were not considered in the tally.

** The vote of a legislator who cast a private ballot was found to be cast by a legislator who gained their status after the date in which the declarations period of this election commenced and, being invalid, was not considered in the tally.

CERTIFICATION

THEREFORE, pursuant to the authority vested in me by the Elections Act, it is hereby certified on this day, 09 Sep 2022, that the candidate signaled as such in the list above has been duly elected by the voters of the South Pacific to the office of Chair of the Assembly to serve a term of four months starting on this day 09 Sep 2022.
