The Volgodonsk constituency (No.155[a]) is a Russian legislative constituency in Rostov Oblast. The constituency covers much of eastern Rostov Oblast, including the city Volgodonsk.
The constituency has been represented since 2016 by United Russia deputy Viktor Deryabkin, former Chairman of the Legislative Assembly of Rostov Oblast and Deputy Governor of Rostov Oblast.
Boundaries
1993–1995: Dubovsky District, Konstantinovsky District, Martynovsky District, Orlovsky District, Peschanokopsky District, Proletarsky District, Remontnensky, Salsk, Salsky District, Semikarakorsky District, Tselinsky District, Tsimlyansky District, Volgodonsk, Volgodonskoy District, Zavetinsky District, Zimovnikovsky District[2]
The constituency covered predominantly rural eastern and central Rostov Oblast, including the cities Volgodonsk and Salsk.
1995–2007: Dubovsky District, Martynovsky District, Orlovsky District, Peschanokopsky District, Proletarsky District, Remontnensky, Salsk, Salsky District, Tselinsky District, Tsimlyansky District, Volgodonsk, Vesyolovsky District, Volgodonskoy District, Zavetinsky District, Zimovnikovsky District[3][4]
After the 1995 redistricting Rostov Oblast gained the seventh constituency, so all other districts were redrawn. The constituency retained most of its territory, losing Konstantinovsky and Semikarakorsky districts in central Rostov Oblast to new Belaya Kalitva constituency. This seat gained Vesyolovsky District from the former Rostov-Sovetsky constituency.
2016–2026: Dubovsky District, Konstantinovsky District, Martynovsky District, Morozovsky District, Orlovsky District, Proletarsky District, Remontnensky District, Semikarakorsky District, Tsimlyansky District, Ust-Donetsky District, Volgodonsk, Volgodonskoy District, Zavetinsky District, Zimovnikovsky District[5]
The constituency was re-created for the 2016 election and retained most of its territory, losing its southern portion on the left bank of the Manych river, including Salsk, to Rostov constituency. This seat instead gained Konstantinovsky, Semikarakorsky and Ust-Donetsky districts from the former Belaya Kalitva constituency as well as Morozovsky District from the dissolved Kamensk-Shakhtinsky constituency.
Since 2026 Ust-Donetsky constituency: Dubovsky District, Konstantinovsky District, Martynovsky District, Morozovsky District, Oktyabrsky District (Artemovskoye, Kerchikskoye), Remontnensky District, Semikarakorsky District, Shakhty, Tsimlyansky District, Ust-Donetsky District, Volgodonsk, Volgodonskoy District, Zavetinsky District, Zimovnikovsky District[6]
Following the 2025 redistricting Rostov Oblast lost one of its seven constituencies, so all the remaining seats saw major changes. The constituency took the name "Ust-Donetsky constituency" and retained almost all of its territory, losing Orlovsky and Proletarsky districts to Bataysk constituency. This seat was pushed westwards, gaining Shakhty and small part of Oktyabrsky District from the dissolved Shakhty constituency.
