The 2022 Northern Mariana Islands general election was held on Tuesday, 8 November 2022, [1] [2] corresponding with the elections of other federal and state offices, including the nationwide 2022 United States House of Representatives elections and the 2022 United States general elections. A runoff for the gubernatorial race were held on Friday, 25 November 2022. [1] [2] [3] This election saw the election of the CNMI's first independent governor and lieutenant governor. [2] [4] Both the CNMI Democratic Party and the CNMI Republican Party displayed lackluster results when compared to the independents in the Northern Mariana Islands House of Representatives. This election also saw the first time the Democratic Party contested the governorship since the 2014 Northern Mariana Islands general election [lower-alpha 1] and the first time said party received more than 10% of the popular vote since the 2005 Northern Mariana Islands general election.

Background

The Republican Party entered the 2022 general election with the baggage of their lost trifecta from the 2020 general election, which saw the slumbering CNMI Democratic Party awaken and gain control of the Northern Mariana Islands House of Representatives through a coalition with several independent members and a single-seat in the Northern Mariana Islands Senate. The Republicans also dealt with several corruption scandals revolving around incumbent Governor Ralph Torres, though Judge pro tempore Alberto E. Tolentino's decision to not try Governor Torres until after the election cycle allowed the incumbent governor to participate in the election. [5] This allowed a three-way race for the governorship between a resurgent Democratic Party, an incumbent Republican Party, and a former Republican turned Independent, to occur.

On the economic front, the COVID-19 Pandemic and its aftermath caused a complete collapse of the local tourism industry, creating a massive economic burden on the territory. [6] Flights between the CNMI and fellow US Territory Guam, as well as countries such as Japan and Korea, dropped to record lows or were suspended completely, severely damaging the economy. [7] [8] [9] The worsening relations between the United States and China also signals that Chinese tourists, once a cornerstone of the local tourism industry, will likely not return to the levels seen before the COVID-19 Pandemic. [6] The CNMI also witnessed a massive 73% decline in the number of foreign workers from 2001 to 2020, [10] a sign of the lack of economic opportunity on the island and a key contributor to the declining population. [11] The declining population has led to lower tax revenue and worse social services and economic conditions, leading to more people leaving and creating a cycle that is difficult to break and is placing pressure on the local government, especially on the incumbents. [12]

The CNMI is also witnessing a healthcare system that is inadequate to meet the needs of the territory, with many taking trips to neighboring Guam to obtain the services they need. [13]

Gubernatorial election

Ralph Deleon Guerrero Torres, the incumbent republican governor ran for another term alongside running mate Vinson Flores "Vinnie" Sablan. Lieutenant Governor Arnold Indalecio Palacios, a career republican, also contested the seat as an independent with Saipan mayor David Mundo Apatang as his running mate. For the first time since the 2014 Northern Mariana Islands general election, the Democratic Party contested the gubernatorial race, nominating Northern Mariana Islands House of Representatives member and the first woman to be nominated for Governor of the Northern Mariana Islands, Christina Marie Elise Sablan (Tina Sablan). She chose fellow territorial representative Leila Haveia Fleming Clark Staffler as her running mate.

In the general election, Ralph Torres came in first with 38.83% of the vote, followed by Arnold Palacios at 33.15% and Tina Sablan at 28.01%. [2] Because no candidate received more than 50% of the vote, a runoff between Ralph Torres and Arnold Palacios was held on 25 November 2022. [1] [2] [3] Tina Sablan and Leila Staffler endorsed Arnold Palacios in the runoff, and Arnold Palacios and David Apatang signed a "unity pledge" with them promising action on several policy issues, including health care, labor, and infrastructure.

Arnold Palacios and David Apatang won the runoff election with 54.14% of the vote to 45.86% for Ralph Torres and Sablan. [2] Arnold Palacios was the first independent elected Governor of the Northern Mariana Islands and the first independent to win a gubernatorial election in any U.S. state or territory since 2014.
