Abstract: Although the early parliamentary elections of February 9, 2020 were announced under the banner of reforming the inert political system in which key players and rules were protected for nearly 30 years, they were still marred by irregularities and unequal opportunities. In the results of the election, the bulk of the old parliament returned and nothing seemed to have changed on the visible side of the political scene. However, this election revealed the “under-layer streams” of the political system, some ending and emerging trends of the political scene. In the article, we study the trends of the political system, the dynamics, causes and dialectics of these trends in the context of the political culture of politicians and the people. The main focus here is that the political scene, which has been static for decades and whose actors and political culture have not undergone any renewal, is exhausted in public opinion and the new generation with ideological differences is faced with the need to organize from scratch.
Key words: election, voter, post-Soviet, political culture, political opinion.
