A by-election in the Samoan constituency of Falealili 1 is scheduled to take place on September 18, 2026. The seat became vacant after the election of MP Toelupe Poumulinuku Onesemo was voided by the Court of Appeal on June 29, 2026, following his conviction for election bribery. This market will resolve according to the candidate who wins the Falealili 1 by-election to the Legislative Assembly of Samoa. If the result of this election isn't known by March 31, 2027, 11:59 PM ET, the market will resolve to "Other". This market will resolve based on the result of the election, as indicated by a consensus of credible reporting. If there is ambiguity, this market will resolve based solely on the official results as reported by the Office of the Electoral Commission of Samoa (https://www.oec.gov.ws/; https://www.facebook.com/oecsamoa).The Falealili 1 by-election in Samoa stems from the Supreme Court's March 2026 ruling voiding the prior FAST incumbent's victory on bribery grounds under the Electoral Act, creating a vacancy in the competitive constituency. This has drawn multiple candidates from FAST, HRPP, and independents, including Taveuveu Willie Tuatagaloa Fetu and Tuiloma Tusa Siiliili Laniselota Lameko, with HRPP formalizing its nominee in late August. Trader consensus remains evenly split across a wide field because no single contender has consolidated strong village-level support or polling leads amid the fragmented field. Upcoming nomination deadlines, campaign events, and any further legal clarifications on eligibility could shift probabilities by clarifying frontrunners before polling.
