The 91st Georgia General Assembly was elected to office in 1890. It became known as the "Farmers' Legislature" due to the role played by the Farmers' Alliance in the successful nomination of three-fourths of the senators and four-fifths of the representatives (as well as the governor, William J. Northen) through the Democratic primary.
It was criticized for a lack of action on taxation, the crop lien system, and the regulation of railroads and out-of-state corporations. As a result, the People's Party of Georgia was formed by many of the Farmers' Alliance-nominated members of the 91st Assembly.

The People's Party, also known as the Populist Party or simply the Populists, was an agrarian populist political party in the United States in the late 19th century. The Populist Party emerged in the early 1890s as an important force in the Southern and Western United States, but declined rapidly after the 1896 United States presidential election in which most of its natural constituency was absorbed by the Bryan wing of the Democratic Party. A rump faction of the party continued to operate into the first decade of the 20th century, but never matched the popularity of the party in the early 1890s.
Nonpartisan democracy is a system of representative government or organization such that universal and periodic elections take place without reference to political parties.
