In order to facilitate the election of the governor of the Omsk region, field election commissions will be deployed "in places of concentration of servicemen.” Voting will take place on September 9 and 10. Servicemen and volunteers from the Omsk region will be able to take part in it, as assured Ivan Khodakov, chairman of the election commission.

"We do not yet understand the mechanism, but in practice, it will be like a referendum," Khodakov said.

The possibility for military personnel to vote from combat zones was initially announced by Nikolai Bulayev, the deputy chairman of the Russian Central Election Commission, in May 2023. The State Duma has passed a law granting annexed territories the authority to tailor election procedures to their specific needs. According to the new legislation, voting will now be allowed in territories under martial law.В
