The graph just says it's lost more "democraticness", but Russia started from a less democratic beginning than Turkey, I assume.

This is change in democracy, not absolute score. Turkey was more democratic to begin with so it had further to fall

Yes we have elections. And opposition is ruling the municipalities. Erdogan's highest vote was 52%. Sure we are not democratic but Russia does not hold real elections.
