Kremlin to Assess Deputies via "Lighthouse System" Evaluation Method
🚨 Here's the lowdown on that crazy traffic light business! 🚦
Looks like regional authorities are sorting their local United Russia representatives into three color-coded categories: green, yellow, and red. It's rumored that this is all part of preparing for the 2026 State Duma elections.
Not just United Russia folks are under the microscope though. Apparently, deputies from other parties are getting evaluations too. Sources claim this is happening under the guise of forming lists for the upcoming election.
Besides assigning a color, the authorities are also supposed to note the deputy's age and public status. This could mean being part of the special operation, a "Leaders of Russia" winner, or studying on the "Time of Heroes" program, among other things.
It's also mentioned that potential replacement candidates are being sought, and each candidate is being characterized similarly to the one they'd replace.
One RIA Novosti insider said deputies are also being evaluated at the United Russia faction level. They're rating folks based on factors like their legislative activity, personal agenda, and influence among colleagues.
According to another source, there are goals for vice-governors regarding United Russia turnout and results for the 2026 elections, which should hit at least 55%. It's all about beating the results from the 2021 State Duma elections, basically.
Last December, reports started circulating that said the Kremlin wanted the vice-governors to ensure at least a 55% turnout and a United Russia party list result of 55% for the 2026 election.
At the United Russia congress in December 2024, Putin made it clear that being in authority isn't enough – direct communication with people is crucial for professional independence. He suggested this criterion should be considered when deciding on re-nomination to power bodies.
