Parliamentary elections were held in Nauru on 24 April 2010,[1] following the dissolution of parliament by President Marcus Stephen on 16 March 2010.[2] The election was called due to repeated attempts to oust the government of Marcus Stephen in votes of no-confidence. There were 86 candidates, eight of them women.[3]
