The site described below is excellent. It is updated often, and while its
scope is primarily elections, its section "The Popular Mood" offers survey
results on many other interesting questions. One can also ask to be
notified by e-mail whenever a new survey result is posted to the site!

DO RUSSIANS WANT TO VOTE? IF SO, FOR WHOM?
If you want up to date information about what Russian electors are
thinking, you can find it at a new Website of VCIOM, Moscow, and the
Centre for the Study of Public Policy. It gives full details of the
latest VCIOM public opinion poll from August and trends in public
opinion too. Since nothing is ever simple in Russia, the website links
public opinion data to the way in which the electoral system converts
popular preferences into public office.

Comments and suggestions about the site are very welcome, as we will
continue to develop it in the run up to the Duma and presidential
elections.
