They were the first multi-party parliamentary elections since independence, but the second round due to be held on 16 January 1992 was cancelled five days before by a military coup after the military expressed concerns that the Islamic Salvation Front, which was almost certain to win more than the three-fourths majority of seats required to change the constitution, would form an Islamic state. This led to the outbreak of the Algerian Civil War. Of 430 seats contested, 232 were won outright with 50% or more of the first-round vote; the remaining 198 would have proceeded to a second round contested only by the two candidates with the highest number of votes. Voter turnout in the first-round was 59%.Dieter Nohlen, Michael Krennerich & Bernhard Thibaut (1999) Elections in Africa: A data handbook, p54 0-19-829645-2 Results File:Algeria People's National Assembly 1991.svg Islamic Salvation Front 3260222 188 National Liberation Front 1612947 16 Socialist Forces Front 510661 25 Movement of Society for Peace 368697 0 Rally for Culture and Democracy 200267 0 Islamic Renaissance Movement 150093 0 Movement for Democracy in Algeria 135882 0 #038927 Party of Algerian Renewal 67828 0 National Party for Solidarity and Development 48208 0 Social Democratic Party 28638 0 Algerian Movement for Justice and Development 27623 0 Democratic Movement for Algerian Renewal 10934 0 Arab-Islamic Rally 10824 0 Liberal Social Party 9272 0 Alliance for Justice and Freedom 9898 0 Union for Democracy and Freedom 9298 0 Algerian Boumedien Islamic Rally 9037 0 Democratic Youth Movement 8902 0 Union of Democratic Forces 8853 0 People's Unity Party 7731 0 Party of Democratic Islamic Arab Union 7283 0 National Alliance of Independent Democrats 6867 0 Democratic Generation 6726 0 National Salvation Front 6575 0 Workers' Socialist Party 6464 0 Popular Association for Unity and Action 6455 0 Ecology and Liberty 5558 0 Progressive Republican Party 4872 0 Union of Forces for Progress 4184 0 Jihad Front for Unity 3899 0 Independence Generations' Front 3860 0 Republican Party 3668 0 Front for Algerian Democratic Authenticity 3600 0 Algerian Liberal Party 2934 0 Algerian Party of the Essential Man 2698 0 Ahd 54 2490 0 Democratic Progressive Party 2380 0 Algerian National Rally 2045 0 Party of Law 1476 0 Social Movement for Authenticity 1225 0 Algerian Party for Justice and Progress 1222 0 Social Justice Party 1186 0 Popular Forces' Front 1067 0 Rally for National Unity 933 0 Organisation of the Forces of Free Revolutionary Islamic Algeria 930 0 Algerian Nation's Youth Rally 928 0 Algerian National Party 816 0 Movement for the Islamic Risala 188 0 National Rally for Progress 111 0 Independents 309264 3 Undetermined 198 924906 0 13258554 Nohlen et al.
