The 2023 State Assembly of the Sakha Republic election took place on 8–10 September 2023, on common election day, coinciding with 2023 Sakha head election. All 70 seats in the State Assembly were up for reelection.
Under current election laws, the State Assembly is elected for a term of five years, with parallel voting. 35 seats are elected by party-list proportional representation with a 5% electoral threshold, with the other half elected in 35 single-member constituencies by first-past-the-post voting. Seats in the proportional part are allocated using the Imperiali quota, modified to ensure that every party list, which passes the threshold, receives at least one mandate.[1]
