General elections were held in Serbia, a constituent federal unit of SFR Yugoslavia, on 12 November 1989 to elect the president of the presidency of the Socialist Republic of Serbia and delegates of the Assembly of SR Serbia. Voting for delegates also took place on 10 and 30 November 1989. In addition to the general elections, local elections were held simultaneously. These were the first direct elections conducted after the adoption of the 1974 Yugoslav Constitution and the delegate electoral system, and the last elections conducted under a one-party system.
The election was preceded by the rise of Slobodan Milošević, who after being elected president of the presidency of the Central Committee of the League of Communists of Serbia (SKS) in 1986, ousted his mentor Ivan Stambolić and Stambolić's allies from key positions in 1987. Milošević started the anti-bureaucratic revolution and began amending the constitution of Serbia in 1988. After Milošević was appointed to the position of the president of the presidency of SR Serbia in May 1989, presidential and parliamentary elections were announced for November 1989.
Milošević, Mihalj Kertes, Zoran Pjanić, and Miroslav Đorđević were the candidates in the presidential election; Milošević ended up winning the election in a landslide. SKS won 303 seats, a net loss of 20 seats in comparison with the 1986 election, and 37 individuals who were not members of SKS won the rest of the seats in the Assembly. The League of Communists of Yugoslavia ceased to exist in January 1990, and after a referendum in July 1990, Serbia adopted a new constitution that implemented a multi-party system and reduced powers of its autonomous provinces, Kosovo and Vojvodina. The first multi-party elections were then held in December 1990.
