About this statute

This provision sets the basic rules for electing the President of the Russian Federation, who may vote, who may run, how elections are appointed, and what election commissions and others must or must not do. The provision sets time limits for election commission terms and gives precinct commissions duties over voter lists, polling arrangements, vote counting, and complaint handling. Правила о выдвижении кандидатов и регистрации требуют соблюдать сроки, подачу документов и лимиты по подписям. Registered presidential candidates have status restrictions, campaign limits, and certain guarantees; the election commission also has powers to act on registration issues. Registered candidates may receive free print space and use campaign media rules, but campaign materials must meet content, disclosure, and funding requirements.
