Independents won 16 of the 24 seats, whilst the Manx Labour Party had its worst result since 1971, winning just 2 seats. The Alliance for Progressive Government contested its first general election after its formation following the 1991 Manx general election, returning its 4 MHK's (who had previously ran as independents) and winning 2 new seats.
