The 2012 American Samoa gubernatorial election took place on November 6, 2012, for the open gubernatorial seat of American Samoa. The election coincides with the larger United States presidential elections, United States general elections and the American Samoa general election. Since no candidate received a majority of the vote on November 6, a runoff election was held on Tuesday, November 20, 2012, which was won by Independent candidate Lolo Letalu Matalasi Moliga. Six candidates sought election as the next Governor of American Samoa in 2012.〔 Governor Togiola Tulafono was term-limited and could not seek a third consecutive term. ==Election background==
The incumbent, Governor Togiola Tulafono, who has held office since 2003, is term-limited and could not seek re-election.〔 Tulafono, who took office after the death of former Governor Tauese Sunia, was elected to his first four-year term in 2004 and re-elected in the 2008 gubernatorial election. All elections and candidates in American Samoa are nonpartisan, though Faoa Aitofele Sunia is affiliated with the Democrat Party. Slightly less than 17,000 American Samoans were eligible to vote in the 2012 election.
