Russia's Elections During Wartime
The Russian general elections were held amid escalating Ukrainian drone attacks on Russian cities, and the results were not surprising, indicating the continued dominance of the ruling United Russia party, which secured more than 350 seats out of 450 in the parliament, with a record voter turnout of 59%. These results serve as an internal message supporting the stability of the Russian political system during wartime, reaffirming the public's ongoing backing of the Kremlin's policies despite the escalation of Ukrainian attacks and the broader conflict. The elections also revealed a clear absence of internal opposition, while the impact of the war on society became evident through the widespread participation of veterans in the electoral process. This all occurred amid heightened tensions and cyberattacks targeting voting systems and infrastructure.
