General elections were held in Turkey in 1927. The Republican People's Party was the only party in the country at the time, as the Progressive Republican Party that had been set up in 1924 was dissolved the following year.

Electoral system

The elections were held under the Ottoman electoral law passed in 1908, which provided for a two-stage process. In the first stage, voters elected secondary electors. In the second stage the secondary electors elected the members of the Turkish Grand National Assembly.
