The Stavropol electoral district (Russian: Ставропольский избирательный округ) was a constituency created for the 1917 Russian Constituent Assembly election. The electoral district covered the Stavropol Governorate, as well as the Karanogai precinct (which was part of the Terek Oblast).[3]
The Stavropol District Electoral Commission for the Constituent Assembly was set-up August 12, 1917, with V. M. Krasnov, prosecutor of the Stavropol District Court, as its head.[4] 319 voting centres, each covering about 2,000 voters, were set up across the electoral district.[4] 46 candidates on 7 lists contested the election.[4]
The SR and Peasant Soviet list was headed by F. M. Onipko, who was popular in the district.[4] Joseph Stalin stood as a candidate on the Bolshevik list.[5]
Voting lasted for three days, November 12–14. The two first days, the polling stations were opened between 9 a.m. and 9 p.m., whilst on November 14 the polling stations closed at 2 p.m.[4] 88% of the eligible voters cast their ballots.[4] In Stavropol town the Bolsheviks won 47.6% of the vote. Likewise, in Pyatigorsk the Bolsheviks won some 8,000 votes, half of the votes from the town.[6]
