Seven single-seat constituencies in the Sverdlovsk region left uncontested by the CEC
Vibe Check: Let's dive into Russia's upcoming election shindig in 2026!
The Scoop: The Central Election Commission (CEC) of Russia is all set to spice things up a bit for the State Duma elections next year. Some regions might witness a change in their electoral district count, but Sverdlovsk Oblast won't be among them.
What's the Tea? The CEC's new scheme for the single-mandate electoral districts takes into account Russia's evolutions over the last decade—think reunification with four new regions, adding seven districts among them. Krasnodar Krai, Moscow Oblast, and Moscow are getting some extra districts due to increased voter numbers. On the flip side, the number of districts has dropped in 10 regions.
Swerve-vovsk Quirk: You might be wonderin' what's happenin' in Sverdlovsk Oblast, and lucky you, it's stayin' untouched with seven single-mandate districts: Sverdlovsk, Kamensk-Uralsky, Berezovsky, Nizhny Tagil, Asbest, Pervouralsk, and Serov.
Killin' it with Katya: Word on the street is that those curious about the changes can hit up RIA "New Day"'s hotline at +7 (901) 454-34-42 or subscribe to their channels on Dzeng and YouTube to stay in the know.
Just a Heads Up: We couldn't find specific information on how Sverdlovsk Oblast's electoral districts will be affected in the 2026 State Duma elections. However, keep an eye on official announcements from the CEC or Russian authorities for the latest on changes in electoral districts across the nation.
