Kunio Hatoyama
Liberal Democratic
A by-election for the Fukuoka 6th district 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 successfully defended the seat by a healthy margin of 43.94% in the 2014 election, where he was facing only a Japanese Communist Party candidate. A separate by-election for the Tokyo 10th district was held on the same day.
