Main article: September 2018 Primorsky Krai gubernatorial election

On 4 October 2017, Governor Vladimir Miklushevsky resigned, and Russian President Vladimir Putin appointed Andrey Tarasenko as Acting Governor.[2][3]

Snap gubernatorial election were held on a Single Voting Day on 9 September 2018. In the first round of elections, none of the candidates was able to gain an absolute majority. To the second round, which was scheduled for 16 September, came the incumbent Acting Governor Andrey Tarasenko, nominated by the United Russia, and Andrey Ishchenko, nominated by the Communist Party.[4]

The second round of election caused a wide public response due to the conflict situation that arose when counting the votes cast for the candidates in the second round. In the process of receiving the results from the polling stations all the time with a margin of about 5% was in the lead Ishchenko (up to 95% of the processing protocols), but after processing more than 99% of the protocols was that more votes Tarasenko.[5] After that, the headquarters of both candidates accused each other of violations, and mass protests began.[6][7]

On 19 September, the Central Election Commission recommended invalidating the election results. According to the law, new election must be held no later than 16 December.[8]

On 26 September, President Vladimir Putin appointed Oleg Kozhemyako as Acting Governor instead of Andrey Tarasenko, who has filed a statement of resignation.[9]

On 16 October, at an extraordinary meeting of the regional Legislative Assembly, the deputies appointed the date of the new election for 16 December 2018.[10]

On 3 November, the Communist party stated it wouldn't nominate a candidate since Andrey Ishchenko "actually won" the September election after which official results were "forged" in favor of Andrey Tarasenko, and also due to problems with passing of the "municipal filter" (a collection of signatures of municipal deputies required to participate in the elections).[11][12] Nevertheless, Andrey Ishchenko submitted documents for participation in elections to the Regional Election Commission as the independent candidate.[13]
