United Russia, the party backed by President Vladimir Putin, is leading the parliamentary election count.
It has won more than 57% of the vote, with more than 95% of the ballots counted.
The party is set to control nearly 80 percent of the 450-seat parliament - which is an all-time high.
The three-day election is the first parliamentary vote since the full-scale invasion of Ukraine in 2022.
Al Jazeera’s Dmitry Medvedenko reports from Moscow, Russia.
