FUNAFUTI, Jan. 26 (Xinhua) -- Voters went to polls in the general election in the Pacific island nation of Tuvalu on Friday, according to media reports.
Voters will select two lawmakers in each of the atoll nation's eight constituencies. All candidates run as independents as Tuvalu has no political parties.
The post of prime minister is expected to be contested in the newly elected parliament.
The last general election in the island nation of some 11,200 people was held in 2019. ■
