On 3 April 2016, Abkhazia held local elections for the 6th convocations of its local assemblies in all districts except Gali.
Background
[edit]The terms of the 5th convocations had originally been set to expire in February 2015, but were extended on 17 December 2014 by the People's Assembly. On 3 February 2016, the People's Assembly extended elections in Gali District once again, until 12 February 2017, because of the unresolved passport situation.[1][2][3]
Sukhumi
[edit]The election for Sukhumi City Council was contested by 82 candidates. Originally, 88 candidates had been nominated but three refused to stand as candidate.[4] Of the remaining 85 candidates, twelve were nominated by United Abkhazia, one by the Abkhazian Railways and the rest by initiative groups. 18 were women.[5] 14 of the candidates were incumbent deputies.[6] All but one of the candidates were successfully registered.[4] Two further candidates withdrew at a later date.[7]
Results
[edit]Turnout was 14,718 out of 39,070 eligible voters (38%). The elections in constituencies no. 21 and 23 were declared invalid, as voter turnout was below 25%.[8][9] Reruns in these constituencies were held on 29 May.[10] One of the elected council members was a woman.[11]
