General elections were held in Saint Kitts and Nevis on Friday 5 June 2020.

The ruling Team Unity coalition consisting of the People's Action Movement, Concerned Citizens' Movement and People's Labour Party won a landslide victory with nine of the eleven directly elected seats with a combined 55% of the vote. As had happened in the previous elections in 2015, the Saint Kitts and Nevis Labour Party received the most votes but did not win the most seats. The Nevis Reformation Party lost their only seat in Nevis, the first time in the party's history that they had failed to secure representation in the National Assembly in a general election.
