An estimated 36,000 Marshallese voted in the election.[1] Final results were not known until after 5 December 2011, when overseas ballots were due.[1]

Results indicated the incumbent president was likely to have the same one-vote majority in parliament he had before the election.[2][3]

Health minister Amenta Matthew and former foreign minister Gerald Zackios lost reelection due to postal ballots.[4]

A tie in the race for the Ujae Atoll seat was only broken after a recount.[5]
