Election petitions filed in Solomons High Court, Radio Australia (2010)
This article reports on the petitions against the results of the recent national elections in Solomon Islands. The three high court petitions were filed by losing candidates, and in at least one of those constituencies, officials reported vote-buying and voter intimidation. In one occasion, a candidate used superstition to convince people to vote for him, threatening disastrous events if they didn't. The Electoral Commission believes that petitions will be heard by the end of the year.
