Supreme Soviet elections were held in the Turkmen SSR on 7 January 1990.[1] Although multi-party politics had been introduced, the Communist Party of Turkmenistan was the only registered party. It won around 90% of the 175 seats.[2] Voter turnout was 93.6%.

It was the second partially free election after Poland in the Autumn of Nations.
