Parliamentary elections were held in North Korea on 15 March 2026 to elect the members of the 15th Supreme People's Assembly. Originally expected to be held in 2024, the elections were announced on 4 March 2026, shortly following the conclusion of the 9th Congress of the Workers' Party of Korea and Kim Jong Un's re-election as the General Secretary. With only one candidate on the ballot in each constituency, outside observers described it as a show election. 687 candidates for the DPRK deputies to the SPA were elected. North Korea's state media reported opposing votes, the first in a SPA election since 1957.
