The head of the «Political Expert Group» Konstantin Kalachev also agrees that everything is proceeding in working order. there is a holiday, but according to the first results of the voting, there are no complaints, neither to the traditional nor to the remote one, that is, from my point of view, everything is going on as usual, completely normal without any excesses, but this was to be expected, because she herself the situation in the country leaves its mark on these elections,» he said. Leading researcher at the Institute of Social Sciences of the RANEPA Sergey Bespa Lov also stressed that the CEC traditionally does everything clearly. «Interaction with regional election commissions, in my opinion, is generally being improved from year to year, now another step has been taken in this direction,» he says.11:26 Voting «on stumps» is not used in these elections, Pamfilova saidExperts note that voters are generally accustomed to and perceive well multi-day and electronic voting, but it is quite difficult to draw the attention of the population to these elections. there were some novelties in the electoral legislation: three-day voting, remote electronic voting, which is in a number of regions, and I can say as a sociologist that these forms have taken root, people perceive this as something already natural, convenient, and there is a fairly high confidence in it,» notes Poturemsky. According to Bespalov, regional, municipal elections are rarely in the focus of public attention, with the exception of some of the most active regions with high political competition. given the situation with the military campaign, it is clear that attention to It will be even more difficult than usual to attract communities to these regional and municipal elections,” he notes. -height=»338″ data-source-sid=»rian_photo» class=»lazyload» width=»1920″ height=»1080″ decoding=»async» sizes=»(min-width: 600px) 600px, 100vw» src =»https://cdnn21.img.ria.ru/images/07e6/09/09/1815625237_0:0:3078:1731_1920x0_80_0_0_138d3fcd72cb168c7c23dafd8f1b99e6.jpg» srcset=»data:image/svg+xml%20xml%2 ://www.w3.org/2000/svg%22%20width=%221920%22%20height=%221080%22%3E%3C/svg%3E 100w «data-srcset=»https://cdnn21.img .ria.ru/images/07e6/09/09/1815625237_0:0:3078:1731_640x0_80_0_0_865273df621848fc929548b7e0aba7c5.jpg 640w 1731_1280x0_80_0_0_f55de3bc755270507941ca7c84f7d1cd.jpg 1280w,https://cdnn21.img.ria.ru/images/07e6/09/09/1815625237_0:0:3078:1731_1920x0_80_0_0_138d3fcd72cb168c7c23dafd8f1b99e6.jpg 1920w»>10:06В Москве назв or the reason for the delay in the operation of the online voting system
