Abstract:
The monograph reflects the results of a comparative political science study of new increasing models of voter turnout and the abolition of qualifying characteristics of the participation of certain groups of the population in elections in Russia and abroad in the framework of solving the problem of low voter turnout. The use of qualification characteristics and the reduction of restrictive voter turnout models make it possible to increase the number of voters in elections and prevent a decrease in voter turnout. In 2020 they have become even more actively used in elections of all types. The most popular of them are postal voting, remote electronic voting, multi-day voting, and lowering the age of voters. However, in Russia, the abolition of the voting qualification for people with mental problems, foreigners, convicts is not considered as an opportunity to increase voter turnout in elections. The solution to the problem of low voter turnout is expressed in the confidence of the population in the current political and legal institution of elections, and on the part of the state - in the ordering of ways to strengthen it. For a wide range of readers interested in increasing voter turnout. It can be useful for students, postgraduates and teachers of political science universities and faculties.
