It depends. LDPR in Khabarovsk region is pretty autonomous, now they (or, better say, governor Sergey Furgal) control all power in the region. Of course he is not in conflict with Putin - Putin can fire any governor, but Furgal is in opposition to government in general.

About Moscow Council: most of communist winners (13) are enemies of local authorities and  allies of Navalny, two are establishment figures with connections to mayor Sobyanin (young Zyuganov and Gubenko).

Just Russia won 3 seats, two of them are legitimate oppositioners (Timanov and Yandiev), third is curious case - Solovyov was supported by Navalny, but only because all normal candidates were banned in his district. Originally, Solovyov from Just Russia was a spoiler to opposition activist Alexander Solovyov, who was later banned from participation in election and now is in jail (administrative term, he must spend about two weeks in jail).

Many establishment, loyal-to-mayor figures from CPRF and Just Russia, lost - both leaders of Moscow Just Russia lost to communists, and former mayoral CPRF candidate Cumin lost to Yabloko.
