Kuwaiti general election, December 2012
Early general elections were held in Kuwait on 1 December 2012 after early elections in February 2012 were declared invalid.
In the elections, Shi'as won 17 out of 50 seats in the National Assembly, an increase from the seven won in the February elections. Sunni Islamists were reduced to a minority.〔 Three women also entered the Parliament compared to men-only from the February election, but their number decreased compared to the 2009 election.〔
Turnout was officially reported to be 43%, the lowest in the Kuwaiti electoral history.
==Background==
Six weeks before the elections, the electoral system was changed, with voters restricted to voting for a candidate, having previously been allowed to vote for four.〔 The changes resulted in mass protests and an opposition boycott of the elections.〔 Shafeeq Ghabra, professor at the Faculty of Political Sciences at Kuwait University said that, "it's clear that the boycott was very successful." The opposition rejected an unilateral amendment of the electoral law that reduced the number of votes per person from four to one.
