The Russian Democratic Reform Movement (Russian: Российское движение демократических реформ, romanized: Rossiyskoye dvizheniye demokraticheskikh reform, RDDR) was a political party in Russia.
History
[edit]The party was established in 1991 by Alexander Yakovlev, Arkady Volsky, Anatoly Sobchak, Eduard Shevardnadze and Gavriil Kharitonovich Popov. In the 1993 parliamentary elections it received 4% of the proportional representation vote,[2] failing to cross the electoral threshold. However, it won eight constituency seats in the State Duma.[3]
It did not contest any further elections.[4]
