1906 Imperial Russian Legislative Election

The Tsar's first Duma

March 1906 · The imperial Dumas · 477 seats, 239 for a majority

Legislative elections were held in the Russian Empire from 26 March to 20 April 1906. At stake were the 477 seats in the State Duma of the Russian Empire, the legislative assembly.

Elected indirectly through class-weighted curiae under an autocracy — yet genuinely contested; the defiant Kadet-led First Duma was dissolved within 73 days.
