Voting on amendments to the Constitution of the Russian Federation in 2020 on the territory of the "Tyumen matryoshka": cross-regional comparative analysis

On July 1, 2020, Tyumen Matryoshka, among other regions, took part in the voting on amendments to the Constitution of the Russian Federation. To assess the indicators of electoral behavior from the point of view of their compliance / non-compliance with the all-Russian average value, as well as to identify factors that presumably influenced the level of activity of residents of the Tyumen region, KhMAO and YaNAO, a cross-regional comparative analysis was conducted. The materials of the Central Election Commission of the Russian Federation and the ratings data compiled by the RIA Rating agency, the St. Petersburg Politics Foundation, the Institute of Regional Expertise, and the Agency for Political and Economic Communications were used as a source base. In order to better understand the situation, the method of descriptive statistics - the "box with a mustache" and hierarchical cluster analysis were used.
