  • The Bijani House of Representatives election of 1997 took place on Sunday, March 2, 1997, to elect the 245 members of the 13th Bijani House of Representatives. The incumbent government Liberal National Party (LNP) sought a sixth term in government against the opposition Social Democratic Party (SDP). The 1997 election was the first to take place after the 1996 law increasing the size of the House of Representatives from 173 to 245 members. The election took place amid a major political realignment in Bijan, which saw smaller parties unite into larger ones: One Nation, formed from the union of the Country Party and the Christian Democratic Party, largely represented interests of rural dwellers, farmers, and conservative poor, working and middle-class voters; and Together For Bijan, formed from the New Bijan Party, the Progressives, Common Future Bijan, the Alliance of Dutch Voters and Prosperous Bijan, which largely represented middle-class urban and suburban voters and the Dutch–Bijani community.
