Supreme Soviet elections were held in the Kirghiz SSR on 25 February 1990, with a second round on 7 April.[1] At the time, the Communist Party of Kirghizia (PKK) was the only party in the country, with most of the candidates being from large collectives or state organisations.[2] Nevertheless, the Party of Communists won around 90% of the seats in the Supreme Soviet, although some MPs (both independents and PKK members) were informally affiliated with the Democratic Movement of Kyrgyzstan.[3]

Voter turnout was 92%.[1]
