The Communist Party of the Russian Federation faction in the State Duma is the deputy association of the Communist Party of the Russian Federation in the State Duma of the VIII convocation (2021–2026).
In the 2021 elections to the State Duma, the CPRF, according to official data, received 18.94% of the vote, which gave it the right to 48 deputy mandates. 9 people nominated by the party won the elections in single-mandate constituencies. Thus, according to the results of the elections to the State Duma, the Communist Party faction received 57 seats in the State Duma of the VIII convocation.[1]
The voting took place in a tense atmosphere and was accompanied by massive violations of electoral legislation, especially in Moscow, where opposition candidates supported by Smart Voting (Valery Rashkin, Denis Parfenov, Mikhail Lobanov, Anastasia Udaltsova, Sergei Obukhov, Mikhail Tarantsov, as well as representatives of other political forces Anastasia Bryukhanova and Sergey Mitrokhin) were in the lead all three days of voting, but after adding the results of remote electronic voting (DEG) they were defeated in all districts,[2] which significantly reduced the possible representation of the party in the new convocation of the Duma. The Communist Party of the Russian Federation did not recognize the results of the elections in Moscow, demanded that the results of the DEG be canceled as falsified[3] and organized mass protests in the format of meetings with deputies.[4]
On October 7, an organizational meeting of the faction was held, at which Gennady Zyuganov was elected its chairman, and Nikolay Kolomeitsev was elected first deputy chairman.[5]
