In Vorkut, the Socialist Revolutionaries will boycott the elections: they stated that the candidates proposed from Moscow are playing into the hands of United Russia

In Vorkuta, the local branch of the Fair Russia party refused to support the “nominees” recommended on top and decided to boycott the Socialist -Revolutionary Emergency campaign in the Arctic, calling for other branches of the Komi Republic.

“Fair” wrote a letter to their leader Sergei Mironov, in which they stated that the candidate for the mayors of Vorkuta Yuri Mazanov and the candidate for deputies of the State Council Vera Skorobogatova, in their opinion, contribute to the victory in the elections of United Russia.

According to the local party members, the arrival of Skorobogatova, who replaced the chairman of the regional branch of Sergei Katunin, "brought the party to the line of collapse", quotes the text of the letter of the newspaper MK as chairman.

“It is not clear to us why people who used the authority and respect in our republic do not get into the top three of the regional list? It is not clear to us why the list itself consists of two people - directly Skorobogatova and a young student, it is not clear where the local“ Socialist Revolutionaries ”say, noting that they have the same issues for the position of head of the city administration. According to them, Yuri Mazanov has not lived in Vorkuta for a long time and in general "has nothing to do with" SR ".

In this regard, the party members refused to support Mazanov and Skorobogatov, recalled their votes and called for this all the Socialist -Revolutionaries of the Republic.

According to Komiinform , the call of Vorkutin’s colleagues has already been supported in other areas of Komi. Members of the Intinsky and Sosnogorsk Councils of the SR said that the “last worthy decision - to leave the party, has been nominated from the party.” The statements of the local councils of the party say that “Fair Russia” is involved in the elections “disorganized and demoralized”, the formation of an elected strategy and a team going to the elections, turned into cupor games and intrigues, “The result is actually lost elections”.

As the general director of the agency of political and economic communications Dmitry Orlov, the problems of the Socialist Revolutionaries in the Komi are associated with the fact that "the party still does not have a clear political" person ". The party is forced to involve various people, sometimes completely random. And such throwing inevitably affect the image of the party and its work. In addition, Orlov noted that regional lists include people "Top", "based on some special interests, and not the interests of the party and its local cells."

According to MK, the party has similar problems in other regions of the Russian Federation. So, in the Tver region, six candidates-settlers entered from the election lists of the local Legislative Assembly at once. All of them submitted applications for a voluntary refusal to participate in the elections. And in St. Petersburg, the ranks of the "Directory" were left by the deputies of the Legislative Assembly of Timofeev, Solovyov and Litvinenko.
