Given the recent goings-on in Russia, this seems like an interesting question.

Of the four listed, "A Just Russia" is the one I would vote for.

It would be better to include also Yabloko, RPR-PARNAS and some unregistered parties.

The Communists, because they are only the real opposition to Putin, unlike A Just Russia.

Yes, Just Russia was created as a puppet opposition or even second party of power, but now it seems to be independent from Kremlin at least to the same extent as KPRF.

You do realise they are to the right of United Russia?

I too would vote for our friends in the LDPR if these were the choices.

A Just Russia, as I've said elsewhere, presuming they aren't presently a puppet organization. Commies, if so.

Aren't all the other parties in the Duma just Putinist puppets?

KPRF and A Just Russia are not puppets. LDPR can fiercely criticize government, but always supported it on most key issues, so in fact it is nearly a puppet.

A Just Russia if it is actually serious about its political platform. No way I'm going with the communists, far-right, or Putin.

Undecided between A Just Russia and Communists... Probably a Just Russia if polls indicated it'd get more than 10% of the vote. If not, Commies.

You know, I'd like to see an election between Zhirinovsky and Vermin Supreme. I'm not sure which one would be viewed as the sane candidate. I really don't understand how Russians let him get away with calling his party either liberal or democratic.

Probably the Communists. It doesn't matter because ER would win anyway, but they strike me as more interesting than A Just Russia and not as reprehensible as Zhirinovsky.

Why waste a nice afternoon voting in Russia?  I'd just spiral into a void of drink, superstition, and conspiracy theory.

Worthy contenders for such race exist not only in the USA but in Russia too. For example, Limonov.

There is also KPRF which calls itself communist but at the same time make great efforts to protect traditional moral values, defend Orthodox Church etc.

No matter which one I vote for, it will count for United Russia if need be.

All atrocious. Almost as bad as our major-party choices.
