In the parliamentary elections on October 1, 1995 , the Portuguese Socialists won for the first time since 1983, they received 44 percent of the vote and thus 112 of the 230 seats. This ended after ten years the reign of Prime Minister Aníbal Cavaco Silva , whose PSD party, after two absolute majorities in the previous elections, received only 34 percent or 81 seats.
