As URA.RU writes, 31 deputies voted for the election of Orlov as the head of Yekaterinburg, two abstained.

They did not consider other candidates.

In December 2020, it became known that the ex-mayor of Yekaterinburg, Alexander Vysokinsky, was appointed deputy governor of the Sverdlovsk region. 

Earlier, the deputies of the City Duma of Yekaterinburg unanimously accepted the mayor's resignation.
