The presidential elections and the first round of the parliamentary elections were held on 9 December, whilst a second round of the parliamentary elections was held on 23 December 1990. This was the last parliamentary election in Serbia where members were elected in single-member constituency seats; all subsequent elections have taken place under proportional representation.

Background

The elections were boycotted by political parties of ethnic Kosovo Albanians, who made up around 17% of the population.[1] As a result of the boycott, Kosovo was Milošević's strongest area of support.
