The electoral district covered the Tver Governorate.[3] U.S. historian Oliver Henry Radkey, who is the source for the results table below, lists the Tver result as 'somewhat incomplete'.[4] Russkoe Slovo reported that the election was conducted orderly, whilst the SR organ Delo Naroda stated that Bolsheviks disrupted the polls in Rzhev uezd.[5] A farmer candidate list was denied registration to contest the election in Tver.[6]
