1934 United Republics general election

The 1934 United Republics elections were the first to be held in the United Republics, following their establishment in the Red May Revolution of the previous year. Following the ratification of the Basic Law of the Union of American Socialist Republics by the I Congress of Soviets on 15 March of that year, the first UASR elections were scheduled for 6-8 April. In spite of the circumstances of the recently-concluded Civil War, freedom of association was protected during the election campaign, and the election is generally regarded by scholars as free and fair. However, the three largest parties (the Workers' Communist Party, Democratic-Farmer-Labor Party and Democratic-Republican Party had formed an alliance, the United Democratic Front, temporarily formed on the grounds of support for the establishment of the United Republics, with the True Democrats acting as the main remaining opposition to this formation following the defeat and exile of the National Salvation Front during the Civil War. Thus, the election in many ways served as a referendum for support of the new state.

The results saw the Workers' Communist Party score an absolute majority of the popular vote and in the Congress of Soviets, with the UDF parties combined reaching over 88% of the popular vote, with the remainder won by True Democrats and independent political candidates.
