According to media reports, most of these “observers” were hired from the martial arts academy.
“Observers” from the “United Russia” party turned the elections in the Voronezh region into gangster showdowns, as a result the presidential party won. The Russian Telegram channel “We can explain” writes about this .
A representative of the Voronezh civil movement “Nepolitika” said that during the elections of municipal deputies, “aunties” from the local combat academy threatened independent candidates and their observers.
“During the two days of voting, tattooed pumped-up men in black uniforms without identification marks (in the photo) were at the polling station in Semilutskyi district. They threatened local residents with reprisals for “provocations” and threatened to strip independent candidates and observers “for verification”, – it is stated in messages
In particular, unknown persons fenced off the zone for independent observers with tape and threatened to “bury” and “shave naked” those who cross the border they set. They also blocked the independent commission’s way to the apartments, and also did not allow observers to vote at home, threatening with reprisals.
“The aunties” did not let them into the election committee cars that went around the voters’ houses, and when the observers tried to go after the mercenaries, they ran away from them at high speed. “We can explain” sources from the election site say that the mercenaries were officially registered as observers from “United Russia” and employees of the CHOP, who allegedly guarded the BC, where the elections were held,” the publication added.
At the same time, identification services show that most of the “observers” were hired from the martial arts academy, which is located in the district center of Semiluka.
“The informal leader of the “EU observers” Pavlo Ovsyannikov (on the right in the photo) turned out to be a Z-patriot previously convicted of robbery,” the message specified.
In addition, in these elections, as reported by the movement for the protection of voters’ rights “Holos”, a record reduction in competition and the refusal of the Ministry of Internal Affairs to monitor order were recorded.
“Police officers do not react in any way to obvious offenses by commission members and outsiders,” the organization added.

New kind of freedom and democracy?
“International law is not only about this. First, the territorial integrity of those states whose governments represent all the people living in the relevant territory is guaranteed. This decision of the General Assembly is unanimous. The fact that the neo-Nazis in Kyiv did not represent anyone after the coup in the eastern part of Ukraine, in Novorossiya, and in Crimea, in my opinion, it cannot be proven, but the main thing is that the UN Charter requires respect for human rights, regardless of race, gender, language and religion This is the root of the conflict in Ukraine,” Lavrov summed up.
It’s best to totally ignore anything that has to do with “elections” in mafia land. It’s always been a farce and always will be.
