The Vladimir electoral district (Russian: Владимирский избирательный округ) was a constituency created for the 1917 Russian Constituent Assembly election. The electoral district covered the Vladimir Governorate.[3] Vladimir was heavily industrialized, second only to Moscow itself. There were many textile mills in Ivanovo-Voznesensky.[4] Out of 11 lists submitted, 7 were approved whilst 4 non-partisan peasants' lists were denied registration.[5]
