Russian officials continue to tell on their pages on social networks and in the Telegram messenger about how they personally and the civil structures they lead support the nomination of Vladimir Putin to the presidency of the Russian Federation. One of the last, yesterday, a post about this in his account was published by the head of the Novosibirsk region Andrei Travnikov. The photo shows the governor himself against the background of a rack with the inscription “Russia. Putin. 2024 ”, and in the text of the travecks reports that he“ visited the headquarters of public support to Vladimir Vladimirovich Putin and signed his nomination with a candidate for the presidency of the Russian Federation! ”
After the publication, the independent deputy of the City Council of Novosibirsk Svetlana Kaverzina noticed that Travnikov reported on his signature after their collection in the Novosibirsk region was already over . After a few hours of herbalists, he deleted his post, which now can only be seen in the TGSTAT service, which saves remote publications.

The accounts of some municipal structures began to delete the collection of signatures in support, the authors of the association of Russian opposition politicians “Committee - 2024” drew attention. In particular, they give screenshots from the pages of several Russian municipalities, where such publications were made in late December or early January, and now these records are already not available.
In addition, in several regions, governors continue to blame for the fact that publications on how they signed in support of Putin, in principle, contradict the law, since officials cannot be agitated in favor of one of the candidates. For example, in the CEC, a corresponding complaint was filed against the head of the Krasnoyarsk Territory Mikhail Kotyukov, who, like other heads of regions, also reported on the support of Putin. The applicants were promptly responded to the election commission of the Krasnoyarsk Territory. As stated in the answer, “in a message dated December 23, 2023, placed in a personal telegram channel (spelling of the document preserved-approx. The Insider) Mikhail Kotyukov, a statement of an individual, voter Kotyukov M.M. The fact that he, as a voter who has registration in the territory of the Krasnoyarsk Territory, put a signature in support of Putin's candidate VV .... ". Therefore, they conclude in the Krasnoyarsk election commission, the publications of the “Voter Kotyukov” do not contradict the legislation.
