Russia is not short of election exercises. This most recent vote had more controversy than usual, preceded as it was by the poisoning of Alexei Navalny. But it has also contained the usual falsifications and some surprising results.

To analyze this, Nikolai Petrov opens with brief contextual remarks on the regional diversity of the Russian polity, and the readiness of the system for the 2021 State Duma elections.

Alexander Kynev, Russia’s most experienced election-focused analyst, speaks (in Russian) about the results, and if any meaningful change in the near future can be discerned. Maria Lipman examines what the regional elections say about Russian society.
