Over 6,200 local elections and referendums are being held in 76 Russian regions on the March 14 single election day, the ninth in the past few years. The voters’ lists embrace about 32 million eligible voters, or nearly one third of the country’s electorate.  Six of the seven officially registered political parties, excluding the Yabloko party, are contesting seats in the local legislatures in 6 regions. Four parties represented in the State Duma lower house of parliament – United Russia, Fair Russia, the Communist Party and the Liberal Democrats – nominated their candidates for all regional and municipal polls.  Three parties – the Communists, the Liberal Democratic Party and Just Russia – are disputing results of the previous single election, held on October 16.
