Background
Mayor of Vologda Andrey Travnikov was appointed acting Governor of Novosibirsk Oblast in October 2017, replacing first-term governor Vladimir Gorodetsky, who resigned early at his own request.[1] Travnikov won the following gubernatorial election in September 2018 with 64.5% of the vote.[2] Newly elected governor Travnikov also appointed Gorodetsky, his predecessor, to the Federation Council.
