- Abstract
The article focuses on the regional election of independent candidate Yevgeny Urlashov as mayor of Yaroslavl, Russia and what his win could mean to the Russian federal elections in 2016. The author discusses Urlashov's background as an anticorruption campaigner and former city-council member, argues that his victory represents an opposition to Russian President Vladimir Putin's United Russia Party, and analyzes what political activists must do to rally Russian liberal democrats and win the 2016 federal election.
