  • A by-election for the in the Japanese Japanese House of Representatives was held on 23 October 2016. The by-election was called following the death of the incumbent member Kunio Hatoyama, a former cabinet minister and member of the Liberal Democratic Party (LDP), from duodenal ulcer in Tokyo on 21 June 2016. Hatoyama had served the district since 2005 and defended the seat by a margin of 43.94% in the 2014 election, where he faced only a Japanese Communist Party candidate. A separate by-election for the Tokyo 10th district was held on the same day. Hatoyama's son and Ōkawa mayor won the by-election as an independent. Hatoyama contested as an independent after a conflict with the local chapter of the LDP on the candidate selection process. The Fukuoka LDP prefectural chapter president, , had submitted the nomination of his son Ken Kurauchi as the LDP candidate for the by-election before Hatoyama declared his candidacy. Hatoyama, who had originally planned to contest the by-election as an LDP candidate, protested this decision and decided to run as an independent. The national headquarters of the LDP attempted to persuade Kurauchi to drop out of the race to prevent dividing the LDP vote in the district. Kurauchi refused to drop out and contested the by-election. Hatoyama joined the LDP caucus soon after taking his seat in the Diet. (en)
