Thousands took to the streets over the summer in Russia after some of the Kremlin’s fiercest critics were barred from a regional ballot.

But the opposition Communist Party has almost doubled its number of seats. So what does this mean for the national elections in two years' time? And how will Putin deal with this setback?
