Approximately half go to United Russia, regardless of the number of seats it receives. In recent convocations, it has had a constitutional majority, i.e., two-thirds of the seats. The remaining committees are divided between factions based on the number of deputies in each faction. In the 8th convocation, United Russia had 17 committees, the Communist Party of the Russian Federation (CPRF) had 5, A Just Russia and the Liberal Democratic Party of Russia had 4 each, and New People had 2.

"This, of course, was a decision that had nothing to do with how it all actually happened. "It's just one phone call, a decision is made, the numbers are immediately rewritten, and that's it," the analyst believes. The sharp surge in votes for A Just Russia was previously noted by an electoral expert who spoke anonymously to the Telegram channel "Elections in Detail," which monitors the voting process. He explained that adding such a number of votes would mean the existence of polling stations where A Just Russia received an average of 14.5%, the Communist Party of the Russian Federation 4.5%, and New People 3.1%. Context. In the first half of the day, the vote count showed that A Just Russia had not overcome the 5% threshold required to enter the State Duma. When 95.18% of the protocols were counted, the party received 4.96% of the vote. However, after 96.95% of the votes had been counted, SR received 5%.

FWD from CHADAEV: About United Russia's electoral triumph. Official propaganda and commentators will talk about consolidation around the flag. Anti-regime propaganda and commentators will talk about how they were slapped together/crushed, and how the regime has further narrowed the space for electoral democracy. Bloggers will grumble and agree that it was more important for the leadership to convincingly demonstrate unity and support than any freedoms, sentiments, and permitted discontent. The icing on the cake is Veliky Novgorod, which has cemented its status as the capital of Russian democracy – here, even Yabloko got into the local legislative assembly. And then there's A Just Russia, hanging on by the flag – the main intrigue. It's important to understand this. Whatever the highest authorities want, the result is determined not only and not so much by their will, but by the collective self-organization of the lower-level leadership. At the top, this is a few dozen people, at the bottom – a couple of million. And they did what they did, and this is important to understand – what drove and drives them, how and why United Russia's electoral rating of around 37% translates into a result of 58% on party lists and almost 100% in districts, with an overall result of approximately 75% in the Duma. As I already wrote, the very name "United Russia" actually contains a certain... protest. A protest against the idea of ​​dividing society into parties and organizing an electoral race between them. The antonym here is a divided Russia. This doesn't mean that people generally don't want to differentiate and demarcate; but they don't want to do so specifically along "party" lines, preferring others – regional, for example. And from the point of view of any governor, to increase their regional representation in Moscow, you need as many votes as possible for one party, so that there are more deputies from your region than from the neighboring one. But which one? It's clear what kind. I foresee despondency that will plunge even the loyal and patriotic blogging community – everything has been concreted down again, and we so wanted more space for freedom, but they won't give it to us. And threatening shouts – are you crazy, we're at war, we need to unite, hold on tight, and not give our enemies even a reason to think that someone here and there is something going on here. So we've already united, right? But we want to reserve the right to a dissenting opinion in certain cases. A small privilege, but a significant one. This doesn't even affect decisions – decisions will be made with even greater monochromaticity than in the last cycle. This is solely about space for expression. It has been preserved, and for some, it has even expanded. And that's good.
