Russians vote in final day of parliamentary elections

Russians are casting their ballots on Sunday in the final day of voting in parliamentary elections, with the pro-Putin United Russia party widely expected to emerge victorious.United Russia has won every parliamentary election in the country since 2003.The 2026 vote marks the first since Moscow launched its full-scale invasion of Ukraine in February 2022, meaning it could offer a slight hint at public sentiment towards the conflict, which has been increasingly impacting Russians at home.However, in August, Russia's Supreme Court ordered the only party opposing the war - the Yabloko party - to be struck from the ballot.
