Lost renomination

Only United Russia held open primaries (called "preliminary voting") for the 2021 legislative election on 24–30 May 2021. A total of 41 incumbents were defeated or not included into the official party list. Despite party's claims that every candidate should go through the process of primaries[15] in fact several nominated in the general election candidates did not participate in the primaries in 2021. These candidates are mostly Governors who are not likely to step down from the governorship, but this group also include other examples: all 5 party list leaders (Defense Minister Sergey Shoygu, Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov, doctor Denis Protsenko, co-chairwoman of the All-Russia People's Front Yelena Shmelyova and Children's Rights Commissioner Anna Kuznetsova), former Head of Tuva Sholban Kara-ool, former Ulyanovsk Oblast Governor Sergey Morozov, chairman of the Duma Defense Committee Vladimir Shamanov and long-time State Duma member Artur Chilingarov.[16]
