Election logo

Presidential elections in Russia will be held on 15–17 March 2024.[1][2] They will be the eighth presidential election in the country. If no candidate receives more than half the vote, a second round will take place exactly three weeks later, on 7 April 2024.[3] The winner is scheduled to be inaugurated on 7 May 2024.[4]

In November 2023, former member of the State Duma Boris Nadezhdin became the first person backed by a registered political party to announce his candidacy, running on an anti-war platform.[5]

He was followed by incumbent Vladimir Putin in December 2023, who is eligible to seek re-election as a result of 2020 constitutional amendments.[6][7][8]

Later the same month, Leonid Slutsky of the LDPR, Nikolay Kharitonov of the Communist Party and Vladislav Davankov of New People announced their candidacies.

As was the case in the 2018 presidential election, the most prominent member of the Russian opposition, Alexei Navalny,[9][10][11] is barred from running due to a prior criminal conviction, and it was expected that he would remain imprisoned during the election.[12][13] On 8 December 2023, three days after Putin announced his re-election bid, Navalny's lawyers have lost contact with him and his whereabouts remain undisclosed. The criminal cases against him have been widely regarded as politically motivated. As a result, many observers, particularly in Western countries, do not expect the election to be either free or fair. Instead, they expect the election process to be dominated by Putin, who has been accused of increasing political repressions ever since launching his full-scale war with Ukraine, which began in 2022.[14][15][16][17][18]

Eligibility

Шаблон:Main According to clause 3 of article 81 of the Constitution of Russia, prior to the 2020 constitutional revision, the same person could not hold the position of President of the Russian Federation for more than two consecutive terms, which allowed Vladimir Putin to become president in 2012 for a third term not consecutive with his prior terms.[19] The constitutional reform established a hard limit of two terms overall. However, terms served before the constitutional revision were not counted, which gives Vladimir Putin eligibility for two more presidential terms.

According to the new version of the Constitution, presidential candidates must:[20]

  • Be at least 35 years old (the requirement has not changed);
  • Be resident in Russia for at least 25 years (previously 10 years);
  • Not have foreign citizenship or residence permit in a foreign country, neither at the time of the election nor at any time before (new requirement).

  • Alexei Navalny, Russian opposition leader and anti-corruption activist. He is barred from running in the election due to a prior criminal conviction, which is widely seen by political analysts, jurists, and human rights organizations as politically motivated.[14][54][15][13] In addition, Navalny is currently serving a jail sentence that will be followed by another sentence which is set to expire in 2032, years after the election takes place.[16][17] In August 2023, Navalny was sentenced to a further 19 years and is now expected to be released in 2050.[18]
  • Sergei Polonsky, businessman, former CEO of the Mirax Group.[55] In 2013, he received Cambodian citizenship, and now does not have the right to become President of Russia, even if he renounces his foreign citizenship.
  • Ksenia Sobchak, TV anchor, opposition activist and journalist, Civic Initiative's presidential nominee in 2018.[56] In 2022, she received Israeli citizenship, and now does not have the right to become President of Russia, even if she renounces her foreign citizenship.

Party congresses and primaries

Congresses of political parties are held after the official appointment of election. At the congress, a party can either nominate its own candidate, or support a candidate nominated by another party or an independent candidate. At least nine parties will hold party congresses by the end of 2023.

Other parties

At Yabloko's congress, which took place on 9 December 2023, somewhat unconventionally, the party decided that Grigory Yavlinsky would run for president as its nominee if he obtains 10 million signatures from potential voters,[65] which is higher than the total number of votes Yavlinsky obtained during his most successful run for president (5.55 million).[66] Yabloko later stated that it would not be nominating any candidate.[43] Furthermore, Yavlinsky only managed to gather around a million signatures.[67]

The Left Front stated that it would run a primary election between 22 candidates, but later announced it would not be holding the primary due to threats received from the police.[68] Instead, the party called on their “comrades in the Communist Party” to vote for one of the following to be nominated at the party congress: Pavel Grudinin, Nikolai Bondarenko, Valentin Konovalov, Andrey Klychkov, Sergey Levchenko, Nina Ostanina, Igor Girkin.
