General elections were held in Western Samoa on 25 February 1967. All candidates ran as independents and voting was restricted to Matai and citizens of European origin ("individual voters"), with the Matai electing 45 MPs and Europeans two.[1] Following the election, Fiame Mata'afa Faumuina Mulinu'u II remained Prime Minister.

Campaign

A total of 126 candidates contested the 45 Samoan seats, with five running in the individual voter seats.[2]

Although voting was restricted to matais, the ability of traditional chiefs to create new matai led to significant changes in voter demographics in some areas, with the number of matais more than doubling since 1961. In Vaisigano No. 1 constituency, the number of matais increased from 139 in 1965 to over 1,400 by the 1967 elections. Trucks had been sent out to collect people and register them as matai, including many women, who were traditionally rarely made matai.[3][4]

Results

Sixteen MLAs lost their seats, including Minister of Education Papali'i Poumau.[4] Surprising defeats included Afoafouvale Misimoa in Palauli East and Tufuga Efi in Vaisigano No. 1.[5]
