Presidential elections, legislative elections and local elections were held in the Philippines on May 11, 1992. This was the first general elections under the 1987 Philippine Constitution. An estimated 80,000 candidates ran for 17,000 posts from the presidency down to municipal councilors. Even if the constitution allows her, President Corazon Aquino did not run for president.

In the presidential election, retired general Fidel V. Ramos of Lakas-NUCD successfully won a six-year term as President, by a small margin. Ramos also got the lowest plurality in the Philippine electoral history.

The 1992 election was the second time both president and vice president came from different parties. Movie actor and Senator Joseph Estrada won a six-year term as Vice President, by a landslide victory.

Under the transitory provisions of the Philippine constitution, 24 senators were elected in this election. The first 12 senators who garnered the highest votes would have a 6 six year term while the next 12 senators would have a 3 year term. Laban ng Demokratikong Pilipino (LDP) got a large share in the Senate race. TV personality and Quezon City Vice Mayor Vicente Sotto III (also known as Tito Sotto) got the highest number of votes.
