The Ivanovo Regional Duma at an extraordinary meeting on Thursday, at the initiative of the regional electoral commission, adopted a resolution to change the scheme of single-mandate constituencies. There were seven more of them (20 instead of 13). When cutting, the so-called petal principle was used: the districts that traditionally support the opposition were “diluted” with territories loyal to the authorities, the political scientist notes. Representatives of United Russia, which now has a majority in the regional Duma, believe that the new division of districts is more logical than the previous one.
