The initiative of the deputies about the transfer of the Duma elections on the single voting day - the third Sunday of September - are close to their own embodiment in the bill, as the parliamentary parties actually managed to reach a compromise. The selected date is acceptable to all factions.
A bill to postpone the elections to the state Duma in 2016 from December on the third Sunday of September can be tabled for consideration by the lower house of Parliament in the next few days. In the main parliamentary parties have worked closely to come to a compromise.
"Reached a compromise that elections will be held on the third Sunday of September. In the coming days, the initiative will be introduced in the state Duma", - TASS quoted the Deputy speaker from the LDPR faction Igor Lebedev. According to his statement, this date is acceptable to all factions.
"The third Sunday of September is quite appropriate date", - the Deputy considers. "Within a month after the election of the state Duma will be able to start their own full-fledged work - it gets on 17-18 October. 1st reading of the draft budget falls exactly at these dates. Consideration of the budget will not suffer, deputies will be able to fully get into the rhythm of work and to solve all the organizational difficulties," he added.
"In the debate about the date of the regular elections to the State Duma of the most current episode at the moment is that all 4 parliamentary parties are close to consensus conventionally, it is considered that suitable conducting Federal parliamentary elections in early September of 2016, is approved by the Deputy Chairman of the state Duma, the head of the faction "United Russia" Vladimir Vasilyev.
"Although the postponement of the day of the vote and is considered a technical, in fact the decision to hold elections in early September, has become a significant political decision and principled compromise of all parliamentary factions," added the MP. He stressed that the high potential for the adoption of a joint decision by all parties is obvious.
Favorite faction "Fair Russia" Sergey Mironov also supported the idea of transferring the Duma elections on the third Sunday of September. "The main themes of support of the bill are as follows: the earlier, even for 3 months, will end the powers of the state Duma, the better is its current composition does not fully meet the realities of today. A 2nd motive is in our faction to this day are the people expelled from the party, and lots of them. And the sooner they will be deprived of the Deputy mandate, the better - I am convinced that in the future they have the mandate will not be", - quotes RIA Novosti Deputy.
Hardest the idea of postponing election day perceived the Communist party, but also the favorite of the party Gennady Zyuganov has informed that in the foreseeable future can be expected to address these issues. "Consultations with the leaders of other factions, with the administration. I think the solution will be in 2 weeks", - said the favorite of the Communists.
Previously a favorite of fraction of LDPR Vladimir Zhirinovsky noted that the election should be postponed, for starters, for the convenience of voters. "In 1-x, holding 2 campaigns with a gap of 2 months will provoke layering them on each other: in early August we should start a campaign for the state Duma election, although it hasn't happened yet regional elections. Voters are just confused. In-2, December is a cold month, the inhabitants of our planet harder to persuade to come to the polls. In the end, 2 campaigns instead of one is twice the price", - he emphasized.
