Leonid Viktorovich Korotkov (Russian: Леонид Викторович Коротков, born January 19, 1965), in Zavitinsk, was the governor of Amur Oblast in the Russian Far East. He graduated from Far Eastern University in 1987. He was a member of the Communist Party of Russia. He became governor in 2001, when he defeated the incumbent Anatoly Belonogov in a runoff. He had been a distant second with only 20% of the vote in the first round, but the incumbent got less than 50% of the vote so Korotkov could participate in the runoff, which he narrowly won.
