The 2009 Kyrloth Speaker Election was held following the expiry of the ten-year term of the Speaker of the House. As the only candidate upon the declaration of the election on Friday 4 September was the incumbent, Erun Zlovsky, the vote scheduled for Thursday 1 October was not held, and Zlovsky was returned as the Speaker for another ten years.

Although the Socialist Party traditionally contests Speaker elections, they did not field a candidate for 2009; the general election was only a month away and, in a statement to Kyrloth News Central, the then party leader Faera Alusza explained that she "did not want to waste party resources on fighting an election we don't really need to win".
