Moscow elections protesters share by demographic group 2019

According to the survey results, a half of the people attending the protest action in Moscow were under 33 years old. The fact that several music bands popular among the young population performed at the protest could potentially give another incentive to this demographic group to attend the event. Men constituted 64 percent of the protesters.
