Abstract: The object of the study is the system of information support for voters in the Russian Federation. The subject of the scientific article is the administrative and legal aspects of informing Russian voters, analyzed in the context of modern socio-political processes. The authors consider in detail such aspects of the topic as the ratio of information and campaigning in the course of public administration of elections, responsibility for administrative offenses in the field of information support of the electoral process, the ambiguity of the administrative and legal status of a candidate in elections and the problems of administrative and legal regulation of voter information carried out by various subjects. Special attention is paid to the problems and prospects for the development of administrative and legal regulation of voter information in the context of today's technological and geopolitical challenges. Based on the understanding of modern scientific research and innovative approaches, as well as the experience of the 2024 election campaign for the election of the President of the Russian Federation, the authors also touch upon some problems of digitalization of the electoral process. The study is based on a systematic approach that allows us to study the mechanism of public administration of voter information as a set of inextricably interrelated and interacting elements organized as a single whole. The work uses a whole range of scientific research methods: formal-logical; comparative-legal; sociological and so on. The main conclusions of the conducted research are the authors' proposals with scientific novelty on clarifying the status of a candidate and legislative legal differentiation of the statuses of "registered" and "nominated candidates", clearer administrative and legal regulation of the voter information mechanism carried out by various entities, and the introduction of administrative responsibility directly for violations in the field of voter information.

Abstract: The possibility of classifying the institutions of direct democracy as “ad hoc” legislation, that is, institutions that are extraordinary forms of direct expression of the will of the people, is being considered. The criteria for distinguishing such forms of direct democracy from forms that are of an ordinary nature, that is, designed for repeated use, are determined. The question of the advantages of forms of direct expression of the will of the people, classified as “ad hoc” legislation, over ordinary forms is explored. The article also raises the question of the risks that can be realized when using special institutions of direct democracy to solve specific problems. The relevance and novelty of the study are due to the small number of scientific works devoted to this topic - on the one hand, and the growing practical interest in the application of institutions of constitutional law related to “ad hoc” legislation in the implementation of direct democracy - on the other. At the moment, there are studies on the topics considered, carried out within the framework of the scientific subject of the theory of state and law, as discussed in the article. At the same time, there are simply no substantive constitutional and legal studies. For a long time, the answer to the question of the effectiveness of such institutions remains unclear. Conclusions: the only objective criterion that allows one to classify a particular institution or norm as an “ad hoc” norm is an indication of its one-time application of a rule of law; It seems incorrect to attribute a particular norm/institution to “ad hoc” legislation only because the law was adopted “for a specific task”; extraordinary forms of direct democracy are the most effective for conducting various kinds of electoral events, that is, voting.

Abstract: The subject of the study is the turnout of citizens to vote and the legal consequences associated with it. The problem lies in the different understanding of democracy, namely, what is meant by the majority of votes when making a political decision. There are three approaches: the decision should be considered adopted if the majority of citizens eligible to vote for it; the decision should be considered adopted if the majority of those who took part in the voting voted for it and at least fifty percent of citizens from the total number of citizens eligible to vote participated in the voting; the decision should be considered adopted if the majority of citizens who took part in the voting voted for and the percentage of citizens who voted out of the total number of citizens eligible to vote does not matter. The main conclusions of the study are: the electoral legislation distinguishes between two approaches to determining the turnout of citizens – the number of citizens who came to vote and the number of citizens who voted; the expression of will during voting can be active and silent (the silent expression of will of citizens, i.e. non-participation in voting, is not always indifferent, but can take into account the assessment of the political situation in the time of a particular vote); to determine the impact of the turnout of citizens on the reliability of determining the will of the people, first of all, it is necessary to distinguish between the actual and predicted turnout of citizens; by itself, the turnout of citizens does not affect the reliability of determining the will of the people (the reliability of determining the will of the people (the reliability of the will to make a political decision), as well as the turnout of citizens (the reliability of the will to participate in voting) is influenced by the conditions of voting, which must be guaranteed.

Abstract: The article is devoted to the local self-government in the vertical division of power. It is shown that local governments perform control functions directly on the ground and act as a free element from the legal point of view of the mechanism of power. Organization of local government linked with a number of factors and in most cases is due many structural feasibility of administrative-territorial division of the state. Reasonable and legal division of the administrative-territorial units of the state directly influences the activity of local self-government established in these units. These issues are regulated by special laws, taking into account the scale of institutions, demographic, ethnic, social positions and other things. Differences in the distribution of units of administrative and territorial divisions in the certain states also affects to the local government. According to the legislation of the countries, in the local administrative-territorial unit, along with local governments, the activity of the head of the state administration is also noted. This parallelism is not typical for the Republic of Azerbaijan. But in countries with a more democratic legislative system, the right to express disloyalty to the head of the local state administration of the corresponding territorial unit is expressed by a majority of the deputies of local self-government. This shows that in these countries local government is not part of the system of state power, and here the separation of power is fully provided. Unfortunately, due to the state of war, the tendencies of ethnic separatism and for other reasons, the formation of such legislation in the Republic of Azerbaijan was not possible.

Abstract: The article deals with the introduction of responsibility of a voter for acception of an "election bribe". It is noted that the global and Russian practice provides for administrative, criminal and constitutional responsibility for the subornation of voters for candidates and other persons wishing to influence the will of the electorate. However, domestic legislation does not imply adverse consequences for the citizen who had received such an award. Taking into account the world experience, the article studies the feasibility and legal possibility of introduction of constitutional, criminal and administrative responsibility for these acts. The research methodology is based on the traditional legal science principles, techniques and approaches: dialectics, analysis, synthesis, analogy, deduction, etc. The authors conclude that it would be the most appropriate to establish administrative responsibility for such actions. And the responsibility for the voter should be less severe than for those engaged in their subornation. In addition, it is rational to provide for an exemption from the responsibility for the citizens who voluntarily reported the bribery to the competent authority, as well as in cases when bribery was conjugated with coercion, threats, deception.
