1991 Leningrad municipal election
The 1991 Leningrad municipal elections took place on June 12, 1991 in the city of Leningrad (modern-day Saint Petersburg), located in the then-Soviet republic of Russia. The elections included the city's first popular mayoral election and a non-binding referendum on whether to change the city's name to its historic name of "Saint Petersburg". The elections coincided with the 1991 Russian presidential election.
Roughly two-thirds of the city's approximately three million eligible voters participated in the election.
