Abstract

The article presents an analysis of new forms of organization of voting, which act as an effective tool for preventing violations of electoral rights. The change in the list of voting forms has raised to a new level the legal significance of such necessary electoral actions as the issuance by a member of the election commission and the receipt by the voter of a ballot. The introduction of innovations required the legislator to establish additional measures of administrative and criminal liability. The new compositions are formulated based on the electoral status of the citizen who receives the ballot illegally; as a mandatory feature of the subjective side is the purpose of the crime and offense. Based on the analysis of the current legislation, the author makes proposals aimed at improving the practice of its application.
