The 2022 Ryazan Oblast gubernatorial election took place on 9–11 September 2022, on common election day. Acting Governor Pavel Malkov was elected to a full term.[1]
Background
[edit]State Duma member Nikolay Lyubimov was appointed Governor of Ryazan Oblast in February 2017, replacing two-term Governor Oleg Kovalyov.[2] In September 2017 Lyubimov won election for a full term with 80.16% of the vote.[3]
Lyubimov, a Kaluga native, failed to make connections with local elite, and his governance was also described as problematic.[4] On 10 May 2022 Nikolay Lyubimov asked for his resignation along four other governors, Rosstat Head Pavel Malkov was appointed acting Governor of Ryazan Oblast.[5]
Due to the start of Russian special military operation in Ukraine in February 2022 and subsequent economic sanctions the cancellation and postponement of direct gubernatorial elections was proposed.[6] The measure was even supported by A Just Russia leader Sergey Mironov.[7] Eventually, on 10 June Ryazan Oblast Duma called the gubernatorial election for 11 September 2022.[8]
