Revenue of Russian political parties generally declined, and financial pressure increased as the State Duma elections approached.

With the Duma elections approaching, almost all political parties in Russia have seen a decline in income

The Russian Central Election Commission has released financial data for political parties in the fourth quarter of 2025. According to a statistics report by "Gazeta.ru": With the Duma elections approaching, almost all political parties in Russia have seen a decline in income.

- United Russia: 8.8 billion rubles (a decrease of 500 million rubles compared to the previous year)

- Communist Party of the Russian Federation: 1.8 billion rubles (a decrease of 600 million rubles)

- Liberal Democratic Party of Russia: 767 million rubles (a decrease of 426 million rubles)

- New People: 719 million rubles (a decrease of 310 million rubles)

- Only the Just Russia party saw a slight increase (712 million → 726 million rubles)

Smaller parties are generally in poor condition, with only the "Russian Revival Party" showing a small increase.

Several parliamentary parties have expenditures exceeding their income and have started using reserves.

Experts believe that donations are flowing towards the front lines and affected areas, making it difficult for parties to raise funds.
