Parliamentary elections were held in Laos on 20 December 1992.[1] They were the first held since the adoption of a permanent constitution a year earlier.
A total of 154 candidates contested the 85 seats, all but four of which were Lao People's Revolutionary Party members. However, all candidates were pre-screened by the LPRP, the dominant force in the Lao Front for National Construction, the only organization allowed to put forward candidates. The LPRP won all 85 seats.[2][3] Voter turnout was reported to be 99.3%.[1]
