They were the first secretary of the CPRF branch in the autonomous district Elena Kukushkina, the director of the CPRF in Noyabrsk Andrei Shepelev and the human rights commissioner in the Yamal-Nenets Autonomous District, non-partisan Anatoly Sak. Members of the Regional Political Council recommended three candidates - Dmitry Kobylkin, acting Governor of Yamal, Sergey Korepanov — Chairman of the Tyumen Regional Duma and Sergey Menshikov — General Director of Gazprom Dobycha Nadym LLC. "There was one issue on the agenda of the political council: nominating candidates for governor," Interfax reports, citing the press service of the United Russia branch. In addition, according to the party, Denis Sadovnikov, coordinator of the Muravlenkovsky city branch of the LDPR, had already been nominated for the post of governor of the Yamal-Nenets Autonomous Okrug by the beginning of the summer.
Let us recall that the new governors of Yugra and Yamal will be determined in several stages. "All parliamentary parties have already decided on the list of candidates."
"If his candidacy is nominated (by the Governor of the Tyumen Region Vladimir Yakushev - IF), we will support it," V. Stepanchenko emphasized. Before this, it was known that the people's representatives of the Legislative Assembly of the Yamal-Nenets Autonomous Okrug adopted amendments to the district law, which cancel direct elections of deputies. I believe that the Regional Branch of the Party presented normal candidates for presentation to the Governor of the Tyumen Region and subsequently to the President of the Russian Federation. The candidates approved by him are sent for consideration to the president, who then submits a list of candidates to the regional parliament.
