- São Tomé and Príncipe legislative election, 1991
São Tomé and Príncipe held its first multi-party elections to the 55-member National People's Assembly (later renamed the National Assembly) on 20 January 1991. Voter turnout was 76.7%.
Background and outcome of elections
The main political parties in the election were the Movement for the Liberation of São Tomé and Príncipe - Social Democratic Party (MLSTP-PSD), the former sole legal party and the Democratic Convergence Party - Reflection Group (PCD-GR), a party formed by a coalition of MLSTP dissidents, independents, and young professionals. Some of the smaller parties that participated in the election were the FDC, or Christian Democratic Front and the Democratic Coalition of the Opposition (CODO), created by the merger of three former overseas opposition movements.
The elections, deemed transparent, free, and fair resulted in victory for the PCD-GR. A transitional government headed by Daniel Daio was installed in February pending presidential elections to be held in March.
