The 2022 Sverdlovsk Oblast gubernatorial election took place on 11 September 2022, on common election day. Governor Yevgeny Kuyvashev was re-elected for a third term.[1]
Background
Presidential Envoy to the Ural Federal District Yevgeny Kuyvashev was appointed acting Governor of Sverdlovsk Oblast in May 2012, and later that month he was confirmed in the position by the Legislative Assembly of Sverdlovsk Oblast. Kuyvashev won his second term in 2017 election with 62.16% of the vote.[2]
Since autumn 2021 rumours spread about Kuyvashev potential resignation, however, the governor generally avoided complaints about his job.[3] In April 2022, Kuyvashev publicly feuded with TV host Vladimir Solovyov after the latter's degrading comments about Yekaterinburg.[4] Despite the rumours and the public conflict, on 20 May President Vladimir Putin endorsed Kuyvashev for reelection.[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 7 June Legislative Assembly of Sverdlovsk Oblast called the gubernatorial election for 11 September 2022.[8]
