The Tambov constituency (No.177[a]) is a Russian legislative constituency in Tambov Oblast. The constituency covers south-western part of Tambov and north-western Tambov Oblast, including Kotovsk, Michurinsk and Morshansk.
The constituency has been represented since 2021 by LDPR faction member Aleksey Zhuravlyov, three-term State Duma member and Rodina part chairman, who won the open seat, succeeding one-term United Russia incumbent Aleksandr Polyakov, who successfully sought re-election in the neighbouring Rasskazovo constituency.
1993–2007: Bondarsky District, Gavrilovsky District, Inzhavinsky District, Kirsanov, Kirsanovsky District, Kotovsk, Muchkapsky District, Rasskazovo, Rasskazovsky District, Tambov, Tambovsky District, Umyotsky District[2][3][4]
The constituency covered the oblast capital Tambov and eastern Tambov Oblast, including the towns Kirsanov, Kotovsk and Rasskazovo.
2016–2026: Kotovsk, Michurinsk, Michurinsky District, Morshansk, Morshansky District, Nikiforovsky District, Pervomaysky District, Petrovsky District, Sosnovsky District, Staroyuryevsky District, Tambov (Leninsky, Sovetsky), Tambovsky District (Avdeyevsky, Belomestnodvoynevsky, Belomestnokriushinsky, Bogoslovsky, Bokinsky, Bolshelipovitsky, Chelnavsky, Chernyanovsky, Gorelsky, Komsomolsky, Krasnosvobodnensky, Kuzmino-Gatyevsky, Lysogorsky, Malinovsky, Novoseltsevsky, Orlovsky, Pokrovo-Prigorodny, Seleznevsky, Streletsky, Suravinsky, Tsninsky)[5]
The constituency was re-created for the 2016 election and retained only south-western part of Tambov, its western suburbs and exurbs, satellite city Kotovsk, losing the rest to new Rasskazovo constituency. This seat took north-western half of Tambov Oblast, including the towns Michurinsk and Morshansk, from the dissolved Michurinsk constituency.
Since 2026: Bondarsky District, Gavrilovsky District, Inzhavinsky District, Kirsanov, Kirsanovsky District, Kotovsk, Michurinsk, Michurinsky District, Mordovsky District, Morshansk, Morshansky District, Muchkapsky District, Nikiforovsky District, Pervomaysky District, Petrovsky District, Pichayevsky District, Rasskazovo, Rasskazovsky District, Rzhaksinsky District, Sampursky District, Sosnovsky District, Staroyuryevsky District, Tambov, Tambovsky District, Tokaryovsky District, Umyotsky District, Uvarovo, Uvarovsky District, Zherdevsky District, Znamensky District[6]
After the 2025 redistricting Tambov Oblast lost one of its two constituencies, so both Tambov and Rasskazovo constituencies were merged into a single constituency, covering the entirety of Tambov Oblast.
