Parliamentary elections were held in Russia on 7 December 2003. At stake were the 450 seats in the State Duma (Gosudarstvennaya Duma) the lower house of the Federal Assembly of Russia (The legislature).As expected the United Russia pro-Vladimir Putin party won the largest number of votes and seats. Of the other parties the Communist Party is still the largest though much reduced in strength. Liberal Democratic Party improved its position by a few delegates.
