Partial general elections were held in Suriname in March 1890 to elect three of the nine elected members of the Colonial States.
The Colonial States consisted of nine elected members and four appointed by the Governor-General. [1] Elected members served six-year terms, with three members elected every two years. The 1890 elections were to replace the three members elected in 1884, G.H. Barnet Lyon , Marcus Samson van Praag and Abraham Salomons , all three of whom ran for re-election.
The elections were held using the two-round system, with suffrage restricted to men meeting certain criteria. Voters had multiple votes, and any candidate receiving a number of votes equivalent to over 50% of the valid ballots cast was elected in the first round. If not all seats were filled, a second round was held with twice the number of candidates as seats remaining, who were the candidates who received the most votes but failed to be elected in the first round.
As there were 167 valid ballots cast, candidates required 84 votes to be elected in the first round. All three incumbents were easily re-elected, with no other candidate receiving more than ten votes.
