More than a half of Russians (56 percent) support the proposal of RF President Dmitry Medvedev about extension of presidential term and the term of the Federal Assembly, signaled the poll of All-Russia’s Center for Public Opinion Studies.
But 29 percent of respondents are against the extension and 15 percent have no answer to this query. Amid those with positive attitude to the prolongation of president’s term and the term of the Federal Assembly, 62 percent approve of Medvedev’s activity in the president’s office, 65 percent are the followers of United Russia and 65 percent support Fair Russia.
Residents of towns (62 percent) also back up the idea.
But the Russians that disapprove of Medvedev as the country’s president (61 percent), followers of Communist Party (50 percent) and of LDPR (50 percent) don’t hail the extension. Residents of Moscow and St. Petersburg as well as the people living in big cities manifest negative attitude towards the idea (33 percent to 34 percent).
Their reasons are that no amendments could be added to the Constitution (12 percent) and that four years are quite enough for attaining set targets (11 percent).
Some 8 percent of respondents see no sense in such changes, and another 5 percent say the president could be a bad leader and fail to justify expectations (5 percent), while 4 percent say six years are a long term and may result in the power stagnation.
The poll of All-Russia’s Center for Public Opinion Studies was held November 15 and 16, covering 1,600 in 140 settlements of 42 regions and republics of the country. The statistic error doesn’t exceed 3.4 percent.
