This was the first election to be boycotted by some minority political parties in Zimbabwe since independence in 1980. However 55 of the 120 seats were not contested and ZANU-PF was the only party that fielded candidates in all the remaining 65 constituencies.

ZANU- Ndonga won 2 seats letting ZANU-PF collect 118 over 120 seats. Margaret Dongo, a renegade from ZANU-PF, contested her defeat in a court of law and a by-election gave her the seat. At the end of the day ZANU-PF had 117 seats, ZANU-NDONGA 2 and Margaret Dongo 1.[8]
