The 2025 State Council of the Komi Republic election took place on 12–14 September 2025, on common election day, coinciding with 2025 Komi head election. All 30 seats in the State Council were up for re-election.
United Russia increased its majority in the State Council, winning 44.50% of the vote and all 15 single-mandate constituencies. Communist Party of the Russian Federation and Liberal Democratic Party of Russia lost two deputies each. Green Alternative and Rodina failed to cross the threshold and lost their factions, while New People entered the State Council for the first time.
Under current election laws, the State Council is elected for a term of five years, with parallel voting. 15 seats are elected by party-list proportional representation with a 5% electoral threshold, with the other half elected in 15 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]
