The 2022 Tomsk Oblast gubernatorial election took place on 10–11 September 2022, on common election day. Acting Governor Vladimir Mazur was elected to a full term.
Background
Sergey Zhvachkin was appointed Governor of Tomsk Oblast in 2012, when he replaced 21-year incumbent Viktor Kress in the position. Zhvachkin won his second term in 2017 election with 60.58% of the vote. Zhvachkin's "soft" style of governance heavily contrasted other heads of Russian regions, which allowed opposition to strengthen. In 2020, United Russia won only 11 seats out of 37 in the Tomsk Duma elections, while two members of Navalny's team were elected. In the 2021 Russian legislative election, United Russia won 32.70% in Tomsk Oblast, its 10th worst result nationally. On 10 May 2022, Zhvachkin asked for his resignation, Deputy Head of Presidential Office for Domestic Policy Vladimir Mazur was appointed acting Governor of Tomsk Oblast.
Due to the start of the Russian invasion of Ukraine in February 2022 and subsequent economic sanctions, the cancellation and postponement of direct gubernatorial elections was proposed. The measure was even supported by A Just Russia leader Sergey Mironov. Eventually, on 9 June Legislative Duma of Tomsk Oblast called the gubernatorial election for 11 September 2022.
