The Petrograd electoral district (Russian: Петроградский избирательный округ) was a constituency created for the 1917 Russian Constituent Assembly election. The electoral district covered the Petrograd Governorate, except for the capital city itself.^[5]

According to U.S. historian Oliver Henry Radkey the result available is incomplete, as data was missing for 7 minor lists.^[6] Radkey's account totals 446,273 votes, including 451 unaccounted votes.^[7] Soviet historian L. M. Spirin has the same account for the three major lists, but adds another 25,462 votes for the smaller lists.^[8] Spirin's account is used for the results table below.

Estonian List

The Estonian List included ten candidates; four from the Estonian Labour Party and six from the Estonian Social Democratic Association.^[9] The list was headed from Hans Piip of the Labour Party.^[9]
