Özet
This article aims to discuss the electoral failures of the first two successive ‘parties of power’ in post-Soviet Russia, namely “Russia’s Choice” and “Our Home Is Russia,” under the presidency of Boris Yeltsin. Particularly the article focuses on Boris Yeltsin’s influence on the failures of these political parties. The main argument of this article is, without disregarding other factors, that the major reason for the failure of Russia’s Choice was Yeltsin’s nonparticipation in the party as a result of his attitude against political parties and Our Home Is Russia’s failure was mainly related to the identification of the party with the unpopular government and the president, Boris Yeltsin.
