- Added Coordinated Leader Election as Alpha under the `CoordinatedLeaderElection` feature gate. With the feature enabled, the control plane can use LeaseCandidate objects (coordination.k8s.io/v1alpha1 API group) to participate in a leader election and let the kube-apiserver select the best instance according to some strategy. ([#124012](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/124012),...

* Use separate client for leader election in scheduler to avoid starving leader election by regular scheduler operations. ([#53793](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/53793), [@wojtek-t](https://github.com/wojtek-t))

    * 2. A cluster can be dualstack (i.e. Pods and nodes carry dualstack IPs) but does not need to support ingress on dualstack. In this case the cluster can perform egress using `PodIPs` (according to family and binding selection in user code) but will ingress will only be performed against the pod primary IP. This can be configured by supplying single entry to `--service-cluster-ip-range` flag.

- Updated the default API priority-and-fairness config to avoid endpoint/configmaps operations from controller-manager to all match leader-election priority level. ([#106725](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/106725), [@wojtek-t](https://github.com/wojtek-t))

- Added an option to enable leader election in local-up-cluster.sh via the LEADER_ELECT CLI flag. ([#127786](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/127786), [@Jefftree](https://github.com/Jefftree))

- Added DRA support for a "one-of" prioritized list of selection criteria to satisfy a device request in a resource claim. ([#128586](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/128586), [@mortent](https://github.com/mortent)) [SIG API Machinery, Apps, Etcd, Node, Scheduling and Testing]

- Kubernetes components that perform leader election now only support using `Leases` for this. ([#114055](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/114055), [@aimuz](https://github.com/aimuz))

* Scheduling conformance tests related to daemonsets should set the annotation that relaxes node selection restrictions, if any are set. This ensures conformance tests can run on a wider array of clusters. ([#68793](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/68793), [@aveshagarwal](https://github.com/aveshagarwal))
