1917 Moscow District Duma elections

Elections to Moscow District Dumas were held on October 7 [O.S. September 24] 1917. It was the second of the three general elections in Moscow in 1917, between the City Duma election of June 1917 and the All-Russian Constituent Assembly election in November. The Bolshevik Party won a landslide victory, obtaining an absolute majority in 11 out of 17 districts and a plurality in another 3 districts. The Kadet Party finished in second place, able to retain most of their support base from the June 1917 Moscow City Duma election whilst the support for the moderate socialists who had won the June 1917 election collapsed. The electoral participation was low.
