THE COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OF DIFFERENT ELECTION SYSTEMS IN THE ELECTORAL PRACTICE OF THE MOSCOW REGIONAL DUMA IN THE REFORM OF THE ELECTORAL LEGISLATION OF THE RUSSIAN FEDERATION
The comparative analysis of various election systems is performed on the basis of the Moscow Regional Duma experience which has used in its practice all available election systems. Responding to all the changes in Russian federal law system, the representative body of the Moscow region applied in its practice both the majority election system and proportional election system. As a result, the system of choice has become the mixed election system. Russian politicians’ attitude to this fact was rather controversial. Such decision caused a great number of debates and discussions, which political scientists held even in the representative body itself.
