The Yelets constituency (No.102[a]) was a Russian legislative constituency in Lipetsk Oblast in 1993–2007. It covered most of Lipetsk Oblast, except Lipetsk and its suburbs. The seat was last occupied by United Russia deputy Nikolay Bortsov, a wealthy agribusinessman, who won the open-seat election in the 2003 election.
The constituency was dissolved in 2007 when State Duma adopted full proportional representation for the next two electoral cycles.
