Kozhemyako wins the election for governor of Primorye

Updated . After processing 57% of the protocols, Kozhemyako gains 60.35%, Andreichenko - 26%.

Oleg Kozhemyako, Acting Governor of Primorsky Krai, is gaining 65.98% of the votes in the elections for the head of the region, based on the results of processing one sixth of the ballots.

Second place is occupied by LDPR candidate Andrey Andreichenko (20.56%).

• Repeat elections in Primorye were scheduled after the CEC canceled the results of a vote that took place in September due to irregularities. Then, when counting votes, the candidate from the Communist Party of the Russian Federation, Andrei Ishchenko, was in the lead until the last moment, but at the last moment, United Russia Andrei Tarasenko was ahead of him.
• Ishchenko is not on the list of candidates for the second ballot, as he could not pass the "municipal filter".
• Kozhemyako headed three other regions to Primorye - the Koryak Autonomous Okrug, the Amur and Sakhalin regions.
