From 1970 to 1978, American Samoa elected an unofficial delegate-at-large in four-year terms to lobby for formal admission to the House of Representatives; they were A. U. Fuimaono from 1971 to 1975, A. P. Lutali from 1975 to 1979 (simultaneously serving in the American Samoa Senate from 1977), and Fofō Sunia from 1979 to 1981 (when the delegate was formally recognized by Congress).
