The Saratov electoral district (Russian: Саратовский избирательный округ) was a constituency created for the 1917 Russian Constituent Assembly election.

The electoral district covered the Saratov Governorate.[3] Saratov had been one of the early strongholds of the SRs [4] Kerensky was one of the SR candidates, but many voters scratched his name from the list (and thus made their votes invalid).[5] was politically turbulent, also during the election.[5] In Saratov Bolshevik campaigners were frequently attacked by rich farmers.[6] Whilst the SR won in the largely agrarian district, the Bolsheviks had a strong showing with strong support from soldiers and from the industrial city of Tsaritsyn.[7] Khvalynsk uezd was an Old Believer stronghold, with presence of Khlysty and Skoptsky sects.[8]

The German socialists didn't field a list in Saratov, whilst the German Central Committee contested on the Volga German List 7.[9]

In Saratov town the Bolsheviks finished in first place with 22,712 votes (37.7%), followed by the SRs with 8,698 votes (14.5%), the Kadets 11,971 votes (19.9%), the Mensheviks 4,100 votes (6.8%), Popular Socialists 2,920 votes (4.9%), the Society for Faith and Order 2,589 votes (4.3%), the Orthodox list 1,924 votes (3.2%), Landowners 1,764 votes (2.9%), Germans 1,280 votes (2.1%), the Ukrainian-Tatar SR list 1,097 votes (1.8%), Old Believers 1,003 votes (1.7%) and 116 votes (0.2%) for the Peasants of Petrovsk uezd and Mordva.[10]

In Tsaritsyn 32,984 votes were cast; 16,613 for the Bolsheviks, 4,468 for the SRs, 2,889 for the Kadets and 2,669 for the Mensheviks.[11]
