The Governor of Russia is the highest official at the level of the constituent entities of the Russian Federation, who heads the local executive state power. Due to the federal structure of the country, the official name of the position of the person acting as the governor may be different: the governor, the president of the republic, the chairman of the government, the head, the mayor of the city. So who are they - the governors of Russia? The regions and territories equated to them are eighty-four, and each has its own governor.
Elections and Appointments
The origins of the institution of governorship in Russia date back to the time of Imperial Russia. Then they were interrupted by the Soviet period. Although, of course, the gubernatorial functions were performed, for example, by the chairmen of the regional executive committees of the CPSU, but formally there were no governors.
According to the Constitution, in the new Russia, the governors of the territories are elected by a general vote of the inhabitants of the region and then approved by the President. In the event of the resignation of the governor or other reasons, the President of Russia has the right to appoint a temporary executive until the next election. Thus, on September 9 (single voting day), the year 2018 will temporarily decrease.

Record holders
The youngest governor in the history of the Russian Federation was Dmitry Artyukhov on May 29 this year. The interim head of the Yamal-Nenets Autonomous Okrug was born on 02.17.1988. That is Dmitry Andreevich full 30 years.
The most experienced governor today is the 68-year-old (11/11/1949) Dagestan leader Vladimir Abdualievich Vasiliev. Although he, like the youngest, is also only acting so far.
The oldest governor in the history of Russia is the ex-head of the Kemerovo region Aman Tuleyev. The notorious fire in the Winter Cherry and health difficulties made Aman Gumirovich resign on April 1 this year. At that time he was 73 years old.
However, Tuleyev, despite his age, is not a champion in the amount of time at the governor's post. The “unsinkable” governor of the Belgorod region, Yevgeny Savchenko, as well as Tuleyev, was the head of the region under all Russian presidents since 1993 (since Tuleyev since 1996), and daily improves the record, as he is still the current governor.
Artyukhov could be called the newest governor, but Vasily Orlov (Amur Region) and Viktor Tomenko (Altai Territory) took up their duties a day later, on May 30.
