Abstract
IntroductionIntroduction. With the development of digital technologies in modern society, there is a significant evolution of democratic processes. Electronic technologies represent both new opportunities for citizens to participate in public administration and serious threats to the stability of traditional democratic institutions.PurposePurpose. Analysis of the problems of public law regulation of traditional democratic institutions in the context of the use of electronic technologies. In particular, the paper examines the impact of digital technologies on electoral processes and their dual role – both as an opportunity to increase citizen participation in governance and as a threat to the stability of democratic institutions.Materials and methodsMaterials and methods. The study uses a variety of methods, including dialectical, system-structural and sociological approaches. The main materials of the study are actual legislative acts, analyses of electoral processes and data on the functioning of electronic platforms, such as the Unified Portal of State Services (UPSU), Digital voting station, «Mobile Voter», «InformUIK», remote electronic voting (REV) systems, etc. The empirical base includes statistical data on the functioning of electronic platforms, such as the Unified Portal of State Services (UPSU), «Mobile Voter», «InformUIK», remote electronic voting (REV) systems and others. The empirical base includes statistical data of the Central Election Commission of the Russian Federation and scientific publications in the field of electoral law.ResultsResults. The article shows that electronic technologies in the electoral process can both improve the accessibility of voting and raise serious concerns about the security and transparency of elections. Examples of successful use of digital services, such as Mobile Voter, which has greatly simplified the voting process, and the use of PPGU to collect candidate signatures are discussed. However, existing shortcomings are also identified, including uneven development of services and high risks of data manipulation.ConclusionsConclusions. Further digital transformation of the electoral process can increase the efficiency and transparency of elections. However, an important aspect remains the need to adhere to traditional voting methods to ensure accessibility for all citizens. To successfully regulate e-democracy, the State should develop measures aimed at increasing trust in digital services and minimizing the risks of unauthorized access to data. It is necessary to intensify public discussion and the legal consolidation of new technologies in the electoral process.
