Russia's ruling party won the largest share of votes cast overseas in the recent State Duma election, according to TASS.
As many as 333 polling stations were opened in 152 countries to allow Russian citizens living abroad to vote, TASS reported. The report did not provide specific vote totals or percentages for the overseas results, nor did it name the party explicitly beyond describing it as the ruling party.
Russia's State Duma elections determine the composition of the lower house of the country's parliament. Overseas voting has become an increasingly significant component of Russian elections given the large number of Russian citizens living outside the country.
Further official results, including a full breakdown of the overseas vote, were not included in the excerpt reviewed for this report.
