The 2021 Chechen Republic head election took place on 17–19 September 2021 alongside national parliamentary elections. Incumbent Head Ramzan Kadyrov was re-elected for his fourth term.[1]
Background
Ramzan Kadyrov was first appointed as President of the Chechen Republic in 2007 and later was re-appointed in 2011. In 2016, Kadyrov ran in his first head election and won it with 97.94% of the vote.[2] Since the retirements of governors Yevgeny Savchenko of Belgorod Oblast in September 2020 and Sergey Morozov of Ulyanovsk Oblast in April 2021, Kadyrov became the longest serving head of a Russian region.[3] On 24 June 2021, President Vladimir Putin endorsed Ramzan Kadyrov for re-election[4] and 3 days later Kadyrov announced his candidacy for head election.[5]
