Primorye: the Communist Party decided to boycott the election of the governor

At the party conference of the regional branch of the Communist Party in the Primorsky Territory, the Communists decided to boycott the governor’s elections this year. They will not put forward their candidate, who could compete with the current chapter Oleg Kozhemyako.

“Politics is a sport. And to remove representatives in the weekends is the same as the athlete before the match to connect their arms and legs and say - Come on, participate! Of course, we understand that in this situation we will lose. Therefore, it was precisely this based on political realities. If a miracle happens, and the CEC will cancel the decision [according to the PEC], then the communists will participate in the elections,” the first said VL.ru, ”said Vl.ru Secretary of the regional committee of the Communist Party Anatoly Dolgachev.

• The election of the governor of Primorye has not yet been officially scheduled, but should take place on a single voting day - September 10. In 2018, the election room canceled the results of the election of the governor in Primorye after it became clear that the candidate from United Russia could lose.
• The Communists said that their candidate Andrei Ishchenko stole the victory, and therefore did not nourish him for the second time. After that, in December of the same year, Oleg Kozhemyako easily won repeated elections. In May 2021, Ishchenko said that the current head of the region, Oleg Kozhemyako, allegedly offered him two million dollars for non -participation in the elections of the governor of the region.
