With 95.18% of precincts counted, United Russia led the party-list vote with 57.83% and was projected to win 355 seats—well above the 301 needed for a constitutional majority and its largest faction ever in the chamber.

Preliminary results indicate that United Russia, backed by President Vladimir Putin, is set to retain control of Russia’s parliament and its constitutional majority. BBC Russia editor Steve Rosenberg said the result was unsurprising. Yabloko, the only anti-war party, was removed from the ballot before voting, though some candidates remained in several constituencies.
Russia’s Central Election Commission says State Duma Speaker Vyacheslav Volodin has secured more than 92% of the vote in his single-member district in Saratov, with 4.05% of precinct reports counted. Communist Party candidate Denis Bulanov is second on 4.11%.
Russia held elections for every seat in the lower-house State Duma. The vote, affected by cyberattacks and drone attacks, was the first of its kind since Moscow launched its full-scale invasion of Ukraine in 2022, while Vladimir Putin’s United Russia party was expected to remain in power.
Early results from Russia’s parliamentary election put the Kremlin-backed United Russia party ahead in a tightly controlled contest. The first parliamentary ballot held during wartime began Friday and ended Sunday, with about 111 million eligible voters. Moscow’s mayor said voting proceeded as planned despite Ukrainian drone attacks.

China congratulated Russia on the successful State Duma elections, with Foreign Ministry spokesman Guo Jiakun saying the result reflects the will of the Russian people. He added that Beijing supports the choice made independently by the Russian people.
Election officials say United Russia has preserved its parliamentary majority. With results counted from more than 95% of polling stations, the Kremlin’s main party had just under 58% of the vote for the 225 seats allocated by party lists.
With 90.45% of ballots counted, Central Election Commission data puts United Russia ahead in the State Duma election with 57.82% of the vote. The CPRF, LDPR and New People are also projected to enter the chamber, while regional legislative and gubernatorial elections were held across Russia.
Election officials say A Just Russia has received 4.96% on the party list with 94.95% of ballots counted, just below the 5% threshold for State Duma entry. United Russia leads with 57.83%, ahead of the KPRF, LDPR, and New People. Preliminary figures suggest United Russia could again win a constitutional majority.
Kazakh President Kassym-Jomart Tokayev congratulated Vladimir Putin on Russia’s successful State Duma elections, saying the results demonstrated broad support for the Russian leader’s strategic course to protect the state’s long-term interests.

German Chancellor Friedrich Merz says he will stay in office despite the CDU’s severe setbacks in two regional elections. The party won only 4.9% in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, failing to enter a state parliament for the first time in 77 years, after taking 17% in Saxony-Anhalt against the AfD’s nearly 44%. Pressure within the CDU and talk of replacing Merz have intensified.

Germany’s regional elections produced mixed results for the major parties. The far-right AfD won the largest share in Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania but remains isolated after other parties rejected coalition talks, giving incumbent SPD premier Manuela Schwesig a viable route to form a government. The Left led in Berlin. The CDU’s poor performance in both contests increases pressure on Chancellor Friedrich Merz and his conservative bloc. Merz said his government would continue its reforms and urged supporters not to dwell only on failures.
Sunday’s elections in two German states ended in defeat for Chancellor Friedrich Merz’s ruling CDU, which he called a “disaster.” The far-right AfD emerged as the strongest party in northeastern Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania, while the hard-left Die Linke led the polls in Berlin.
Germany’s final state elections of the year have produced a sharp political shake-up: The Left won Berlin, while the AfD came first in Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania. The CDU suffered heavy losses in both contests.
The Kremlin-friendly far-right Alternative for Germany was projected to lead Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania’s regional election with 38.2%, ahead of the SPD’s 35.4%. Chancellor Friedrich Merz’s CDU won only 4.9%, putting its state-parliament entry at risk. Merz called the result a “disaster” but said he would remain in office.
Chancellor Friedrich Merz’s Christian Democratic Union won just 4.9% in the Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania state election, missing the 5% threshold and failing to enter the regional parliament for the first time. The AfD led with 38.2%, followed by the SPD at 35.5%.
State elections in Berlin and Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania produced a historic defeat for Merz’s CDU and a major advance for the AfD. Merz called the result in Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania a “disaster,” adding to pressure on his coalition government.
The far-right Alternative for Germany made substantial gains in elections in Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania and Berlin, but is expected to remain in opposition in both states. An exit poll put the AfD at 37.9% in Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania, narrowly ahead of the SPD at 35.7%; it won 16.2% in Berlin. Other parties appear unwilling to form coalitions with it.
Chancellor Friedrich Merz says he will remain in office and as CDU leader after heavy conservative losses in two German state elections.
