The 2024 Khabarovsk Krai gubernatorial election took place on 6–8 September 2024, on common election day, coinciding with 2024 Khabarovsk Krai Legislative Duma election. Acting Governor Dmitry Demeshin was elected for a full term in office.

Background

[edit]

Then–State Duma member and Chairman of the Duma Committee on Sport Mikhail Degtyarev was appointed acting Governor of Khabarovsk Krai in July 2020, replacing fellow Liberal Democratic Party member Sergey Furgal who was arrested earlier in July on suspicion of organising two murders and one murder attempt.[1] Degtyarev faced opposition from Furgal's supporters for his denouncement of the protest movement, firings of Krai Government officials[2] and appointment of Moscow and Samara natives to his administration, which resulted in prominent Furgal allies such as both Federation Council Senators from the krai Yelena Greshnyakova and Sergey Bezdenezhnykh, Khabarovsk City Duma Speaker Mikhail Sidorov and Anton Furgal, the eldest son of the former governor, leaving Liberal Democratic Party in protest.[3] Nevertheless, Degtyarev easily won the subsequent gubernatorial election in the first round with 56.81% of the vote, while TV presenter and actress Marina Kim (SR–ZP) placed second with 25.39%.[4]

In early May 2024 Governor Degtyarev was mentioned as potential future Minister of Sport along with current Deputy Minister Odes Baysultanov.[5] On May 11, 2024, re-appointed Prime Minister Mikhail Mishustin nominated Governor Mikhail Degtyarev to serve in his second cabinet as Minister of Sport, replacing Oleg Matytsin.[6] State Duma Committee on Physical Culture and Sport unanimously supported Degtyarev's nomination on May 12,[7] while the full chamber voted 350–0–79 to approve Degtyarev as new Minister of Sport two days later.[8] Degtyarev became the only non–United Russia party member, excluding Independents, to serve in the Mishustin's Cabinet and the first one since 2004, as well as the first federal Minister from the Liberal Democratic Party since Sergey Kalashnikov, who served as Minister of Labour and Social Development in 1998–2000.

After his nomination, Governor Degtyarev left Khabarovsk on May 12, 2024, leaving First Deputy Governor Aleksandr Nikitin as acting Governor until the temporary replacement be appointed by the President.[9] Nikitin was considered a potential candidate for the appointment, while other mentioned candidates included Senators Andrey Bazilevsky of Khabarovsk Krai and Konstantin Basyuk of Kherson Oblast,[10] Head of Rosreestr Oleg Skufinsky, Deputy Presidential Envoy to the Far Eastern Federal District Denis Andreyev and Deputy Prosecutor-General of Russia Dmitry Demeshin.[11] On May 15 President Vladimir Putin appointed Dmitry Demeshin as acting Governor of Khabarovsk Krai.[12]
