The 2023 Legislative Assembly of Zabaykalsky Krai election took place on 8–10 September 2023, on common election day. All 50 seats in the Legislative Assembly were up for reelection.
Electoral system
Under current election laws, the Legislative Assembly is elected for a term of five years, with parallel voting. 25 seats are elected by party-list proportional representation with a 5% electoral threshold, with the other half elected in 25 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]
Candidates
Party lists
To register regional lists of candidates, parties need to collect 0.5% of signatures of all registered voters in Zabaykalsky Krai.

Single-mandate constituencies
25 single-mandate constituencies were formed in Zabaykalsky Krai. To register candidates in single-mandate constituencies need to collect 3% of signatures of registered voters in the constituency.
