The 1752 AN Scattered Islands state general election (Sangunese: 1752年散在諸島州総選挙, translit.: 1752-nen Sanzai Shotō-shū Sō Senkyo, Phineaner: Pilihanraya Negeri Kepulauan Tersebar/Serpihan 1752); colloquially know as 1752 5S or 1st 5S (1752年5エス/最初の5エス, 1752-nen Go-esu, or Saisho no Go-esu) was the first state election in the Scattered Islands, scheduled to be held in 17-24.XI.1752 AN or 22 January RP 2622 under the Scattered Islands Organic Law, the charter of the autonomous territory within the Federation. The election elected representatives as the first regular election for the Scattered Islands State Legislative Assembly to replace the interim government led by the Scattered Islands Transitional Authority.

Background

Interim assembly

After the people of the archipelago voted to secede from Oriental Taemhwan in a 1743 referendum, the Transitional Authority of the Scattered Islands was established and served as a provisional government from 1744 AN, and also acted as its provisional assembly through the establishment of a State Legislative Assembly. The provisional government was not formally divided by political party affiliation but rather into two groups according to the nominating entity; most were politicians supporting "Option A" including François Izana Puigdemont, while the rest were federal government appointees.

The interim council session took place in 1744 AN and was expected to end in 1751 AN.

In 1747 AN, the Parliament of Phinbella passed a motion to delimit and add constituency seats for the newly annexed territory of Phinbella and for the directly administered city for the next general election. The Scattered Islands were proposed to have 20 constituencies, which would be counted after the Syōnan Archipelago which had only one constituency.

Electoral system

Voting for the State Legislative Assembly is the same as at the federal level and in the other territories, which is based on universal suffrage, which comprises all citizens over the age of 16 in either the Gregorian or Norton calendars, registered in the Scattered Islands (and in Oriental Taemhwan before the territory was separated) and enjoying full political rights, provided that they have not been sentenced—by a final court decision—to be deprived of the right to vote. It also allows Scattered Islander-born voters outside this state or outside Phinbella to vote by post. The Phinbellan Election Commission at the state level will send ballot papers to Scattered Islands voters who are unable to return to their homeland, while Order's embassies appoint their representatives to assist the Election Commission in sending ballot papers to voters abroad.

With 74 out of 80 seats to be contested in the 1752 AN Scattered Islands state election, the final composition of the State Legislative Assembly after the election must meet the following:

• 51 seats for members of the State Legislative Assembly shall be elected from single-member state constituencies through a first-past-the-post voting system;
• 23 seats are reserved for at-large and sector representatives, to be elected through a open list proportional representation system;
• 8 seats are nominated members appointed by the Government.

The electoral constituencies for the Scattered Islands State Legislative Assembly were defined through State Act No. 41 (Demarcation of Electoral Constituencies) 15 days after the new federal constituency delimitation in Parliament was approved. The state electoral constituencies were created as a fraction of the federal parliamentary constituency, following the distribution of seats according to the constituent islands within the state:

• Tromelin Atoll – 20 seats
• Glorioso Islands – 7 seats
• Bassas da Íeu'ryïan – 2 seats
• Saint Croix Islands – 4 seats
• Yeop Takiyouki Island – 1 seat
• Eureka Island – 2 seats
• Isla del Tropico – 9 seats
• Amsterdam and Jemberana Islands – 2 seats
• Taiping (Tepen) Island – 1 seat
• Karayuki-san Atoll – 1 seat
• Rampayan, Izu and Marcus islands – 2 seats

The following is the distribution for the at-large seats and sectoral representatives seats:

• At-large – 4 seats
• Welfare and Education – 2 seats
• Culture and Sport – 2 seats
• Industry, Commerce and Finance – 3 seats
• Labour – 1 seat
• Professional – 1 seat
• Non-Taemhwanian Indigenous and Minorities – 2 seats
• Settler Communities – 2 seats
• Women – 1 seat
• Youth – 1 seat
• Traditional leaders – 1 seat
• Ulama – 1 seat
• Priest and Kannushi – 1 seat
• Yehudis – 1 seat

Representatives for Ulama, Priests and Kannushi shall be chosen by candidates from their respective religious parties as permitted by the Scattered Islands State Act No. 14 relating to local organisations. Such candidates shall be submitted to the Election Commission seven days before the nomination day and shall be declared simultaneously with other candidates. Representatives from minorities and non-Taemhwanian indigenous people shall be from candidates from their own organisations.
