The constituency has been represented since 2023 by United Russia deputy Dmitry Averov, former Speaker of the Lipetsk Oblast Council of Deputies, who succeeded five-term State Duma member Nikolay Bortsov after his death in April 2023.
Boundaries
1993–2007: Gryazi, Gryazinsky District, Lipetsk, Lipetsky District[2][3][4]
The constituency compactly covered the oblast capital Lipetsk, its satellite city Gryazi as well as their suburbs.
2016–2026: Chaplyginsky District, Dankovsky District, Dobrovsky District, Krasninsky District, Lebedyansky District, Lev-Tolstovsky District, Lipetsk (Pravoberezhny, Sovetsky), Lipetsky District (Bolshekuzminsky, Ivovsky, Kosyrevsky, Kuzmino-Otverzhsky, Lubnovsky, Novoderevensky, Novodmitriyevsky, Pruzhinsky, Sentsovsky, Telezhensky, Vvedensky), Stanovlyansky District, Yelets, Yeletsky District[5]
The constituency was re-created for the 2016 election and retained only northern half of Lipetsk as well as northern Lipetsky District, losing the rest to new Levoberezhny constituency. This seat instead gained rural northern Lipetsk Oblast, including Yelets, from the former Yelets constituency.
Since 2026: Chaplyginsky District, Dankovsky District, Krasninsky District, Lebedyansky District, Lev-Tolstovsky District, Lipetsk (Pravoberezhny, Sovetsky), Lipetsky District, Yelets, Yeletsky District[6]
After the 2025 redistricting the constituency was significantly changed, swapping Dobrovsky and Stanovlyansky districts for the rest of Lipetsky District with Levoberezhny constituency.
