The appearance with a confession

The Yabloko held an action in Moscow and St. Petersburg to verify compliance with the election law. On the day of voting, the party activists went around several sites and received ballots without absenteeism. About the results of the St. Petersburg campaign was told on the air of the television channel, the leader of the local branch of the party Maxim Reznik.

"[Representatives of the Murmansk" apple "] passed seven polling stations and said: we are from Murmansk, we cannot vote because we do not have a residence permit and no absentee certificates, but we have a passport and a great desire to vote for Dmitry Anatolyevich Medvedev,” Reznik said. “Seven out of seven! We have these seven ballots.”

On Monday night, Reznik was detained near the party’s office. He does not exclude that his detention is related to a statement of election violations.

In Moscow, the polling stations were by the leader of the Yabloko youth, Ilya Yashin and the activist of the party from Murmansk Dmitry Volov. According to Yashin on his blog, they visited seven polling stations, but only in two cases did Volova refused to give a ballot without an absenteeism.

“The four chairmen were very delighted with the Murmansk guest, they said that the turnout was very low and good that some young people are so responsible,” Yashin writes. “The fifth was very surprised at such“ consciousness ”, tried to explain that“ there was no point in voting because everything was already decided, ”but after a short discussion he also gave out a ballot.”

In three hours of oxen, he received five ballots. On Monday, he intends to send them to the CEC and the Prosecutor General’s Office with a demand to invalidate voting in five polling stations and bring to justice the chairmen of these election commissions. Photocopies of the received ballots will be attached to both statements.
