On March 18, 2018, the presidential elections will be held in Russia. Eight candidates apply for this post: Sergey Baburin (“Russian National Union”); Pavel Grudinin (Communist Party); Vladimir Zhirinovsky (LDPR); Vladimir Putin (self -nominated president of Russia); Ksenia Sobchak ("Civil Initiative"); Maxim Suraykin ("Communists of Russia"); Boris Titov (Growth Party); Grigory Yavlinsky ("Apple").

According to most political scientists, participation in the elections, especially in the elections of the president of the country, for citizens of this country who have the right to vote, is fundamentally - because this is the only way to determine who they agree to entrust the management of the country. The election mechanism allows you to have a direct impact on power, to miss the opportunity to express your attitude to what is happening in the country is unreasonable. Moreover: participation in the elections is a manifestation of a personal civil position, demonstrates an indifferent attitude to what is happening in the country.

In addition, as political technologists note, the elections with the highest appearance are the most honest: the more voters directly express their will, the less opportunities for falsification, subsidies of voting results, and the more the election result will be adequate to the mood in society and objective.

According to Igor Bunin, the President of the Center for Political Technology, participation in the elections is important for citizens precisely due to the fact that it is a manifestation of their civil position. The refusal to express this position, non -participation in the elections, regardless of what their result will be, entails negative experiences for the voter, he is convinced.

“Citizens should go to the polls, because ignoring them means signing that you do not have a civil position. Whatever the candidates, you must still come and find among them the most ideologically person to you. If you cannot find this among the proposed candidates, you should think about who you would like to fight against. If you think that it is important to prevent the victory of some candidate, you should think about which of his rivals will cause the greatest damage to this candidate and vote for this opponent.

In any case, you must come to the elections and make your ideological or rational choice. Because after the end of the vote you will think, you are ashamed or not ashamed of your own choice, for non -participation or for participation and an incorrectly thrown voice.

American scientists conducted a study and established: most often people make a choice when voting, wanting to use their ballot so that then this does not cause negative emotions in them. You must prevent a negative perception of your participation in the elections. The non -participation in the elections in any case will cause negative emotions. You will bite your elbows. Suppose you did not participate - and the candidate that you do not like won. This is unpleasant. And if he wins when you participated in the elections, your conscience is pure: you tried to do something, tried to counteract this, ”summed up Bunin.
