History

Elections were last held on 8 September 2019. Governor Sergei Furgal's party, LDPR, won by a landslide in the election, gaining 27 seats (30 total) and therefore a supermajority, while the ruling party, United Russia, lost 28 seats and its supermajority.[6]

In December 2019, a deputy from LDPR, Sergey Bezdenezhnykh, was appointed as a senator to the Federation Council with 22 votes out of the 30 deputies present in the Legislative Duma.[7][8]

In June 2020, LDPR deputy Vyacheslav Furgal, the brother of Sergei Furgal, died in June 2020 due to COVID-19.[9]
