Voting in Russia’s 2024 presidential election opened on Friday and will continue until Sunday. In many ways it will be a unique event in the country’s history.

It is the first presidential vote to take place since the constitution was updated, in 2020. This 'zeroed' the previous terms of the current head of state, Vladimir Putin, allowing him to participate for a fifth time. It is also the first presidential election in which voting will take place over three days, not only at polling stations, but also online. Moreover, it is the first election in which the residents of four new Russian regions will participate – Kherson and Zaporozhye, and the Donetsk and Lugansk People’s Republics.

Here, we break down everything you need to know about the vote, from the candidates and the procedure to the predicted results.
