1991 Sakhalin General Election (Dreams of a Federation)

General Elections were held in the Union of Sakhalin on 28 May 1991. It marked the first free multi-party election after the fall of the Soviet Union. The Labour Party with former CPSU regional secretary Krasnoyarov obtained a plurality of seats in both chambers of congress, mainly from workers districts and countryside.

His government would fall only in 1994, after a new General Election was called amid discontent among the population.
