Final results of Russia Duma poll for party lists MOSCOW, Dec 29 (Reuters) - Russia's Central Electoral Commission on Wednesday released final official results for the 225 seats contested in the December 19 parliamentary election on the basis of party lists. The remaining 225 seats in the State Duma lower house are contested on an individual constituency basis. Final results for the individual constituencies have not yet been published because in nine of them the election must be held again due to irregularities the first time round. The rerun has been set for March 19, 2000. A party needed at least five percent of the vote to win seats in the Duma. Only six of the 26 parties contesting the Duma election cleared the five percent hurdle.
