Parliamentary elections were held in Mongolia on 13 June 1954.[1] At the time, the country was a one-party state under the rule of the Mongolian People's Revolutionary Party. The MPRP won 192 of the 295 seats, with the remaining 103 seats going to non-party candidates, who had been chosen by the MPRP due to their social status.[2] Voter turnout was reported to be 100%, with only 97 voters failing to cast a ballot.
