General elections were held in Sint Maarten on 29 August 2014.
[1] They were the first elections since Sint Maarten became a constituent country within the Kingdom of the Netherlands in 2010, at which point the Island Council became the Estates.
The result was a victory for the United People's Party, which won seven of the 15 seats in the Estates.
The DP, NA, UP and US were easily able to get the necessary signatures, whilst the OSPP only narrowly qualified.
The Social Reform Party led by Jacinto Mock, a former National Alliance candidate, obtained fewer than 80 signatures, and was initially declared unable to run.
