Russia\'s upcoming presidential election is set to take place between 15 and 17 March with most voting occurring in Russia and annexed regions of Ukraine. The election will be observed closely for insights into Russian politics and society. Notable aspects include multi-day voting and online balloting for the first time in a Russian presidential election. Independent media outlets are mostly banned, and spreading deemed false information about Ukraine\'s invasion can lead to imprisonment. Previous elections have seen Vladimir Putin consistently secure a significant majority of votes, with opposition candidates facing obstacles.
