Medvedev's rating rose to one percent and became equal to Navalny's rating
If the presidential elections in Russia were to take place next Sunday, 48% of participants in a survey conducted by the Levada Center would vote for the current President Vladimir Putin. The leaders of the Communist Party of the Russian Federation and the Liberal Democratic Party, Gennady Zyuganov and Vladimir Zhirinovsky, could get 3% each.

Russian Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu, opposition leader Alexei Navalny, Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev and leader of the A Just Russia party Sergei Mironov would get 1% each.
It is interesting that in the pair of antipodes Medvedev-Navalny was not the oppositionist who caught up with the prime minister, but vice versa. Before Navalny began to expose the chairman of the government and organize rallies against him, Medvedev did not gain even 1%.
19% of respondents do not know who to vote for, 13% will not go to the polls, 10% doubt whether to go. Thus, 58% of respondents are guaranteed to go to the polls. Among them, Putin's rating is 83%.
The survey also showed that 64% of respondents would like Putin to be re-elected next year, 22% would prefer to be replaced by someone other than Dmitry Medvedev. No one supported his candidacy as a successor.
Medvedev's rating has risen to one percent and is now on par with Navalny's.
