The Levada Center polling organisation is part of the University of Wisconsin (Madison) and is under suspicion by the Russian authorities as a foreign agent and are registered under the Russian version of FARA.

But I guess what you are saying is that 15% of the people responding to an anonymous poll have a death wish?

Any plausible reasons why the number is "only" 85% for Putin, and not 100%?
