Early general elections under a new electoral law were held in Tonga on 25 November 2010. They determined the composition of the 2010 Tongan Legislative Assembly. The early elections were announced by the new King George Tupou V in July 2008 shortly before being crowned on 1 August 2008, and were preceded by a programme of constitutional reform. For the first time, a majority of the seats (17 out of 26) in the Tongan parliament were elected by universal suffrage, with the remaining nine seats being reserved for members of Tonga's nobility. This marked a major progression away from the 165-year rule of the monarchy towards a fully representative democracy. The Taimi Media Network described it as "Tonga’s first democratically elected Parliament".

  • Las primeras elecciones generales en virtud de una nueva ley electoral se celebraron en Tonga el 25 de noviembre de 2010.​ Las elecciones determinaron la composición de la Asamblea Legislativa Tonga de 2010. El Partido Democrático de las Islas Amigas, fundado en septiembre de 2010 específicamente para luchar contra la elección y liderado por el veterano activista a favor de la democracia Akilisi Pōhiva, obtuvo la mayor cantidad de escaños, con 12 de los diecisiete escaños "representativos de la gente".​ (es)
  • Des élections destinées à élire les 26 membres d'une Assemblée législative (Fale Alea) réformée se sont tenues aux Tonga le 25 novembre 2010. Bien que des scrutins de ce type se soient tenus depuis la fondation de l'État tongien moderne par la Constitution de 1875, celui de novembre 2010 sera en effet le premier à produire une assemblée dont la majorité des membres sont élus au suffrage universel direct par les citoyens. Ce vote constitue ainsi la mise en pratique des réformes démocratiques promises par le roi George Tupou V, qui renonce dans le même temps à la majeure partie de ses pouvoirs. (fr)
  • Досрочные парламентские выборы в Тонге проходили 25 ноября 2010 года в соответствии с новым законом о выборах. Они определили новый состав Законодательного собрания Тонги. Досрочные выборы были объявлены новым королем Георгом Тупоу V в июле 2008 года, незадолго до их коронации 1 августа 2008 года после конституционной реформы. Впервые большинство мест (17 из 26) в парламенте Тонги избралось всеобщим голосованием, а остальные девять мест были зарезервированы для представителей национальной аристократии. Это ознаменовало серьезный прогресс в истории 165-летнего правления монархии и переход к полностью представительной демократии. Избранный парламент описывался как «первый демократически избранный парламент Тонги». (ru)
