Presidential elections were held in East Timor on 19 March 2022.[1] Incumbent Francisco Guterres sought election to a second term.[2] As none of the presidential nominees received at least 50% of the cast votes, a runoff was held on 19 April 2022, between the top two candidates, José Ramos-Horta and Guterres.[3] Ramos-Horta won the runoff with 62.1% of the total votes cast.[4]
The election marked the first time that someone had been re-elected to the East Timorese presidency (albeit to a non-consecutive term), as well as the second time that an incumbent president had been defeated – after the 2012 election, when Ramos-Horta was eliminated in the first round.[5] As a result of constitutional provisions which limit presidents to two five-year terms in a lifetime, Ramos-Horta will be ineligible to run in any future presidential election.[6]
