Electoral systemTwo Europeans were elected from a single two-seat constituency. Voting was restricted to European and mixed European-Samoans aged 21 or over.[1] A total of 578 people registered to vote, including around a hundred German nationals, whose right to vote in the election was confirmed by the New Zealand government.[3] CampaignIt was reported in October 1941 that the two incumbent members Charles Dawson and Olaf Frederick Nelson would not stand; Nelson due to ill-health and Dawson having left the Samoa.[2] However, Nelson did eventually contest the elections, alongside former MLCs Alfred Smyth and Arthur Williams, the shop manager Percy Glover and Armando Stowers, a planter and leader of the Labour Party.[3][4] Results
