The 2025 Legislative Assembly of Yamalo-Nenets Autonomous Okrug election took place on 12–14 September 2025. All 22 seats in the Legislative Assembly were up for re-election.

United Russia increased its already overwhelming majority in the Legislative Assembly, winning 65.6% of the vote and all 11 single-mandate constituencies. Liberal Democratic Party of Russia, Communist Party of the Russian Federation and A Just Russia – For Truth all retained their factions, slightly increasing vote share.

Electoral system

Under current election laws, the Legislative Assembly is elected for a term of five years, with parallel voting. 11 seats are elected by party-list proportional representation with a 5% electoral threshold, with the other half elected in 11 single-member constituencies by first-past-the-post voting. Seats in the proportional part are allocated using the Imperiali quota, modified to ensure that every party list, which passes the threshold, receives at least one mandate.[1]
