Abstract: In the period from 1766 to early XX century the practice of criminal responsibility for the violation of legislation on elections in Russia went a long way of development from simple forms to efficient and well-grounded forms. In China the institution of protection of election rights was formed much later, basically at the same time with the system of elections.
