If the elections to the State Duma of the Russian Federation took place on the next Sunday, then only three Russian parties would receive deputy mandates.
Sociologists of the Levada Center , presenting the results of the All-Russian survey, which was conducted on October 21-24 among 1586 people in 130 settlements of 45 regions of Russia, told Interfax that the 7-percent barrier of the Just Russia (5%), Yabloko (2%) and “Patriots of Russia” are not overcome at present (less than Patriots of Russia (less than Patriots of Russia (less 1%).
The "United Russia" continues to lead the electoral preferences of Russians.
To the question: "If the elections to the State Duma took place on the nearly Sunday, you would vote on them, and if so, for which political party would you vote?" - 60% of respondents indicated United Russia.
Thus, as sociologists note, in comparison with July, the party’s rating grew by six percentage points. As for the ratings of other parliamentary parties, for the same period they have practically not changed. So, 17% of voters are now ready to vote for the Communist Party, and 11% for the LDPR. According to the "Levada Center",
If we talk about the number of mandates in the new parliament, then the Levada Center reports that according to the results of this survey of United Russia, 68% of places would get in the Duma, the Communist Party of the Communist Party - 19% of the seats, and the LDPR - 13% of the mandates.
In addition, the Rorsians also spoke on the issue of trust in President Dmitry Medvedev and Prime Minister Vladimir Putin. Their ratings remain high: 62% of the respondents said they were satisfied with Medvedev’s activities, and 68% - the work of Putin.
However, in general, the government’s activities under the leadership of the prime minister approve of less than half of Russians (47%). At the same time, 44% believe that things in the country are in the right direction, and 38% - that the country is moving along the wrong path.
But as sociologists found out, despite this, the Russians trust Putin most of the politicians (39%). Medvedev is trusted by 33% of respondents. The leader of the LDPR Vladimir Zhirinovsky is trusting in 14% of respondents, the head of the Communist Party of the Communist Party Gennady Zyuganov receives 13%, the head of the Russian Ministry of Emergencies, Sergei Shoigu, gained 12% of the vote, and Patriarch Kirill, who was also attributed to politicians, despite the fact that the church in the Russian Federation was separated from the state, 6%.
In the hypothetical elections of the President of the Russian Federation, if they took place on the nearly Sunday, Vladimir Putin would also have the greatest support: 36% of citizens would vote precisely for him.
Dmitry Medvedev would be cast by 9%. Gennady Zyuganov could count on the support of only 6% of voters, and Zhirinovsky even less - 5%.
As the study showed, as many as 24% of Russians surveyed have not yet decided on their choice of the president, and 11% would not at all participate in the elections. Another 10% still do not know if they will go to the polls.
