On November 9, the City Duma of Krasnodar will elect a new head of the city, and the next day a similar vote will be held in the Kemerovo City Council.
In the capital of Kuban, 14 people applied for the post of mayor, however, according to the results of the competitive selection, only five made it to the final. These are the region’s vice-governor for construction issues Yevgeny Naumov, City Duma deputy Pavel Popov (United Russia), entrepreneurs Akhmed Besleney and Gennady Potapov, and unemployed Nikolai Pavelko. The favorite is Mr. Naumov, who was previously publicly supported by the Governor of the Krasnodar Territory Veniamin Kondratiev. Recall that the previous mayor of Krasnodar Andrey Alekseenko resigned on August 19 in connection with the transition to the post of head of the government of the Kharkov region (at that time part of it was controlled by the Russian military, who later retreated from these territories).
In the capital of Kuzbass, all eight candidates who applied for participation in the elections made it to the final. Their names have not yet been disclosed in the competition commission, however, the press service of the city council told Kommersant that there are two deputies of the city parliament among the candidates – United Russia members Maxim Nevolin and Alexei Pomoshnikov. At the same time, the Kemerovo branch of United Russia specified that another candidate was formally nominated from the party – the acting mayor of Kemerovo Dmitry Anisimov. It is also known that Alexander Smirnov, director of school No. 52, will participate in the elections. Recall that the former head of the city Ilya Seredyuk at the end of September took the post of chairman of the government of Kuzbass.
