United Russia Wins Parliamentary Election
The results are in from the December 2, 2007 Russian Parliamentary election and there are no surprises. United Russia easily won, gaining an additional 16 seats in the Duma as compared to the last election. 63% of eligible voters turned out to vote for one of the 11 competing political parties.
The structure of the new, incoming Duma is (party with number of seats):
- United Russia - 315
- Communist Party of the Russian Federation - 57
- Liberal Democratic Party of Russia - 40
- A Just Russia Party (pro-Kremlin) - 38
I guess it's time to get ready for Prime Minister Putin.
