Abstract
The article analyzes the activities on the implementation of methods of direct communication with voters of regional branches of youth branches of parliamentary political parties in the Irkutsk region and the Krasnoyarsk Territory. The author offers his own classification of methods of communication with voters in the political sphere. In our opinion, political communication of parties is divided into: traditional political communication; communication via the Internet; direct communication with voters. The article provides data on direct communication for the period March 2023 – March 2024. The activities carried out, their number and orientation are considered. The content of the study involves an analysis of the activities of the Young Guard of United Russia, the Lenin Communist Youth Union, the LDPR Youth Organization and the Youth of a Just Russia. In addition, a comparative analysis of the regional offices of two neighboring Siberian regions is provided, which allows us to obtain a more accurate picture of the study. It is concluded that the Irkutsk branches of the youth "wings" of the parties are much more active than the Krasnoyarsk ones, however, the structure of activity in different subjects differs, as does the final "distribution of seats". The results of the study are relevant in the context of analyzing the activities of youth political movements, youth policy in the regions, as well as parliamentary parties.
