Fiji election: Registered voters top 723,000, highest since 2014

The number of registered voters in Fiji has increased by more than 132,000 people since the country’s first election in 2014.

Latest figures released by the Fijian Elections Office (FEO) on Tuesday show registered voters stood at 723,771 as of 30 June 2026.

The latest total is the highest voter registration figure recorded in the country’s three election cycles since 2014.

Of those registered voters, 362,438 are men and 361,333 are women.

More than four out of every five registered voters are in the Central and Western divisions, which together account for 583,310 voters.

The figure represents an increase of about 22 percent since the country’s first election under the 2013 Constitution, which the Sitiveni Rabuka-led coalition government is seeking to replace with a new constitution.

But while the voter roll has grown over the last three elections, voter turnout has continued to decline over the same period.

Elections chief Ana Mataiciwa said the updated figures would guide the FEO’s preparations for the upcoming general election, the date for which has yet to be announced.

Fijian voters are also expected to have a broader range of choices at the next election, with 11 political parties now registered to contest the polls.
