Fijian general election, March 1977



Fiji's election for the House of Representatives held in March 1977 was the second since independence from the United Kingdom in 1970. A split in the ethnic Fijian vote, which saw 25 percent defecting to Fijian Nationalist Party of Sakeasi Butadroka, an extremist organization which advocated the "repatriation" of Indo-Fijians to India, led to the narrow defeat of the Fijian Alliance Party of the Prime Minister, Ratu Sir Kamisese Mara.
