Direct Translation via Google Translate. Edited.
Note: Volodya is not up for election this round. He will run again for president in 2024.

As a side note, should he make it to 2024, he will have been serving as ruler of Russia for longer than Nicholas II.

Residents of the region within three days will elect deputies of the State Duma of the Russian Federation, the governor of the Khabarovsk Territory (ahead of schedule), as well as additional elections will be held for the deputy of the Legislative Duma of the Territory of the seventh convocation in the Transport single-mandate constituency No. 6.

The number of voters in the Khabarovsk Territory is 967,297 people.
