The Kursk electoral district (Russian: Курский избирательный округ) was a constituency created for the 1917 Russian Constituent Assembly election. The electoral district covered the Kursk Governorate.^[3]

Kursk was an agrarian, Black Earth province with no industries. The Bolshevik vote was largely attributed to soldiers returning home from the front.^[4] In Kursk town the Kadets got 10,043 votes (45.1%), the Bolsheviks 5,793 votes (26%), SRs 3,876 votes (17.4%), Popular Socialists 1,599 votes (7.2%), Mensheviks 688 votes (3.1%) and Landowners 257 votes (1.2%).^[5] 4,143 out of the 5,793 Bolshevik votes came from the town garrison, where the Bolsheviks obtained 58.2%. The second largest party in the Kursk garrison were the SRs (2,169 votes, 30.5%).^[5]
