1970 American Samoan general election

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

General elections were held in American Samoa in November 1970, alongside a multi-question referendum. Voters elected members of the eleventh Fono, and for the first time, an unofficial American Samoan delegate to the United States House of Representatives. A. U. Fuimaono, a high chief and Director of Agriculture, was elected as the islands' delegate.[1]
