The 2025 Rostov Oblast gubernatorial election will take place on 14 September 2025, on common election day. Acting Governor of Rostov Oblast Yury Slyusar is eligible to run for a full term in office.

Background

Vasily Golubev, Head of Administration of Leninsky District in Moscow Oblast, was elected Governor of Rostov Oblast in June 2010 by the Legislative Assembly of Rostov Oblast, replacing retiring four-term incumbent Vladimir Chub. Golubev ran for re-election in 2015 and 2020 with 78.21% and 65.53% of the vote, respectively.

In 2024 Golubev was rumoured to resign early ahead of the 2025 election. On November 4, 2024, Golubev announced his resignation and later that day President of Russia Vladimir Putin appointed United Aircraft Corporation CEO Yury Slyusar as acting Governor of Rostov Oblast. Experts mostly cited Golubev's long tenure in office as the main reason for his resignation (he was third longest-serving governor at the time of his resignation), however, declining approval ratings might also be the deciding factor. Later in November 2024 Golubev was appointed to the Federation Council by the Legislative Assembly of Rostov Oblast, replacing incumbent Senator Irina Rukavishnikova.
