Kharkov electoral district

The Kharkov electoral district (Template:Lang-ru) was a constituency created for the Russian Constituent Assembly election, 1917. The electoral district covered the Kharkov Governorate.

The official SR list in Kharkov was dominated by the left-wing faction of the party, contesting jointly with the Ukrainian Socialist-Revolutionary Party. This list, List no. 5, won an overwhelming victory; a predictable development as these groups heavily dominated the soviets in the area and played the most prominent role in the campaigning ahead of the polls. The right-wing pro-war SR faction had its own list, headed by E.K. Breshko-Breshkovskaia.

Whilst trailing far behind the SRs across the country-side, the Bolsheviks won the election in Kharkov city.
