For today's constitutional development of Russia, the referendum is one of the most important opportunities where people can express their attitude on the most important issues of public life. The basis for holding a referendum in Russia is the realization of the constitutional right of citizens to participate in a referendum. In the modern constitutional development of Russia, a referendum should become one of the main forms of citizens' participation in the management of state affairs. The 1993 Constitution of Russia, as amended in 2020, defines a two-tier system of public power (state and municipal). The referendum has not yet found proper implementation at the levels of federal and regional state authorities, as well as at the level of municipal authorities.
