In the framework of this research were identified factors of electoral participation at the settlement level in Russia. Theoretical and methodological approaches to the study of electoral participation were considered. Thus, limitations and opportunities were identified when studying turnout at the settlement level. It is worth noting that the turnout at the local level is of a mobilization nature.
