Greek legislative election, June 1989

Greek legislative election, June 1989

Legislative elections were held in the Hellenic Republic on June 18, 1989. At stake were 300 seats in the Greek parliament, the Voule.

The liberal-conservative New Democracy party of Constantine Mitsotakis was elected, defeating the Panhellenic Socialist Movement (PASOK) of Andreas Papandreou. However, New Democracy could not form a government, despite its 5% lead in the popular vote, because of the electoral law that the previous PASOK government had voted into effect before the elections.
