Snap parliamentary elections were held in Armenia on 9 December 2018,^[1] as none of the parties in the National Assembly were able to put forward and then elect a candidate for Prime Minister in the two-week period following the resignation of incumbent Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan on 16 October.^[2][3][4] They were the first elections after the 2018 revolution and the country's first-ever snap elections.^[5]

The result was a landslide victory for Pashinyan's My Step Alliance, which received 70% of the vote and won 88 of the 132 seats in the National Assembly.
