Ivan Serebryakov: "Now there are not elections, but pure appointment"

On September 10, Edham Akbulatov ended the term of office of the head of the city. Recall that the Krasnoyarsk residents will no longer choose the mayor of Krasnoyarsk.

“The party decided in support of Edham Akbulatov. We considered the process of nomination of Akbulatov's candidate as an open, public process. We are configured for an open dialogue with voters on the formation of his candidate program for the development of the city and a report on the work done, ”said Alexei Dodatko.

Elections in the city council will be held at the end of October. Edham Akbulatov officially stated that he would participate in the competition for the site of the mayor of Krasnoyarsk.

“The nomination of Edham Akbulatov by the party in power is a profanity. Again, everything was done unconditionally. Where is the vaunted primaries that everyone spoke of? I heard that United Russia also had other candidates. We have candidates for this position.

For example, the current deputy of the city council Valery Revkuts. This is one of the candidates. Now there are not elections, but clean water. 15 deputies out of 30 in the City Council from United Russia. 80% of the Krasnoyarsk residents for electing the head of the city independently, ”says Ivan Serebryakov.

Alexey Dodatko explained that there are a number of indicators of socio-economic development of the city, which the party considers key to determining the candidate:

“We understand that you can not lose the pace of development of the city, because the Universiade is ahead. Secondly, 47 kindergartens were repaired or built in 5 years, the volume of the road network increased by 2 million square km. This is a matter of priorities and systematic work. ”
