General elections were held in Liechtenstein on 3 and 5 March 1989. The result was a victory for the Patriotic Union, which won 13 of the 25 seats in the Landtag, which had been enlarged by 10 seats compared to the 1986 elections. Voter turnout was 90.88%.[1] Early elections were called following the Progressive Citizens' Party's Landtag members resigning in protest due to the VU refusing to support an investigation into power abuse by the Liechtenstein state court in 1985.[2]
This was the first and only election contested by the Non-Party List, a political grouping attempting to prevent either the VU or FBP from forming a majority.[3]
