1990 Crimean Supreme Soviet election (Our Switzerland)

Parliamentary elections were held in the Crimean SSR on March 4, 1990 to elect all 150 members of the Crimean Supreme Soviet. These elections were the first democratic elections in Crimea since the 1939 election. The election marked a major win for the pro-democracy camp, as the United Democratic Front won a majority of the vote and gained 139 seats (around 90% of the seats). The ruling Communist Party, which had renamed itself the Democratic Socialist Party and disassociated itself from the Communist Party of the Soviet Union, lost power for the first time since the USSR had occupied Crimea in 1940. The new Supreme Soviet re-elected reformist leader Roman Usmanov, who had recently left the Communist Party, as Chairman.

The elected legislature was responsible for the most important political decisions in the modern history of Crimea, such as the Declaration of Sovereignty (April 21, 1990) and the Declaration of Renewed Independence (September 8, 1990).
