Nauruan parliamentary election, 2008

Parliamentary elections were held in Nauru on April 26, 2008,〔("Nauru parliament dissolved before April 26 election" ), ''The China Post'' (Taiwan), April 19, 2008〕 following the dissolving of Parliament by President Marcus Stephen on April 18. The decision came after what Stephen referred to as "months of political deadlock". Of the parliament's eighteen members, nine supported the Stephen government and nine were in opposition.〔Phil Mercer, ("Nauru president calls snap polls" ), BBC News, April 18, 2008〕〔("Nauru declares state of emergency and fresh elections" ), ABC Radio Australia, April 18, 2008〕
==Events leading to election==

The deadlock had been exacerbated by a crisis between the President and the Speaker of Parliament, Opposition member David Adeang. On March 22, Adeang had called a Parliamentary session, allegedly without informing government ministers, who therefore did not attend. Opposition MPs, Adeang included, constituted a majority of legislators present, and passed a ruling outlawing dual citizenship for Members of Parliament. The ruling, if applied, would have affected senior Cabinet ministers Dr. Kieren Keke and Frederick Pitcher. Had they been compelled to resign from Parliament, the Opposition would have controlled a majority of seats in Parliament. The law was overturned as unconstitutional by the Supreme Court,〔("Nauru judge blocks citizenship law change" ), ABC Radio Australia, April 8, 2008〕 and Adeang subsequently sought to suspend all pro-government MPs from Parliament, citing their allegedly "unruly behaviour". A week later, Stephen dissolved Parliament.
Two observers from the Pacific Islands Forum were present to monitor the election, at the request of the Nauruan government.〔("Observers for Nauru election" ), ''Fiji Times'', April 23, 2008〕
There were 65 candidates for the 18 seats, among whom were former Presidents Ludwig Scotty and René Harris.
