The tightly controlled vote, which takes place over a three-day period from Friday to Sunday, is widely expected to shore up the dominance of the ruling United Russia party in the 450-seat State Duma, the lower house of parliament.
這項受到嚴格控制的投票活動,將在週五至週日的3天內舉行,外界普遍預期,這將鞏固執政的「團結俄羅斯黨」在擁有450個席位的國家杜馬(下議院)中的主導地位。
While the result is not in doubt, external observers will be paying close attention to voter turnout and the margin of United Russia’s victory for any signs of public discontent after more than four-and-a-half years of war.
雖然選舉結果毫無懸念,但外部觀察家仍將密切關注投票率,以及團結俄羅斯黨的勝出幅度,以尋找在歷經4年半的戰爭後,公眾是否有任何不滿的跡象。
