General elections were held in Mali on 9 June 1985. The country was a one-party state at the time, with the Democratic Union of the Malian People (UDPM) as the sole legal party. Its leader, Moussa Traoré, was the only candidate in the presidential election, and was elected unopposed.[1] In the National Assembly elections several UDPM candidates were able to contest each seat.[2]
