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 91%. Early elections were called due to the Kunsthaus case, where the Progressive Citizens' Party's Landtag members resigned in protest to the VU refusing to support an investigation into power abuse by the Liechtenstein state court in 1985.
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.
Electoral system.
The 25 members of the Landtag were elected by open list proportional representation from two constituencies, Oberland with 15 seats and Unterland with 10 seats. Only parties and lists with more than 8% of the votes cast in each constituency were eligible to win seats in the Landtag. All citizens aged 20 or above were eligible to vote.
