Brave Russians say NO to 'vote Vlad': Election booths are vandalised and set on fire, ballot boxes filled with dye and polling stations attacked with fireworks as citizens REFUSE to back Putin
Daily Mail ^ | 3/15/2024 | James Reynolds

Russian citizens have conducted a string of explosive protests in defiance of a presidential election rigged in favour of Vladimir Putin as voting opened on Friday.

Video purported to show a woman dousing a Moscow voting booth in flammable liquid before setting it on fire and recording the drama on her smartphone.

The fire was promptly extinguished and the woman detained, according to local media. But similar acts of vandalism continued around the country, with a voter setting a ballot box alight in Khanty Mansi region in Siberia, according to local reports.

In Saint Petersburg, a woman threw a Molotov cocktail at a school being used as a voting station, according to electoral authorities, while an explosive device was detonated at a polling station in Russian-occupied southern Ukraine.

Five people in at least four regions poured dye into ballot boxes, and another was detained for lighting fireworks inside the polling station.

“...a presidential election rigged in favour of Vladimir Putin ...”

I don’t doubt this as they know well how the US democrats rig elections, but how do they know with sufficient proof to make such a bold statement. Suspicion is not proof.

Remember when they used to have elections in Ukraine? The people would often vote for pro-Russian candidates so Ukraine could share in Russia’s economic success. That ended when the Government and Constitution were overthrown in 2014

Nope. And the president of Russia will be appointed by the Duma next time rather by an “election” since these acts of protest are not a good look for the Russian establishment and their oligarch benefactors. Especially in the age of social media.

No, they're the ones who don't want a one-party dictatorship.

Russia’s “election” is no different from a Detroit “election”.

Russia “election” = Philly “election”

Final, but uncertified, election returns from Philly showed Joe Biden beating Donald Trump 81% to 18%.

Tell Russia to send “General 200” Syrskyi’s new crop of massacred Ukrainians back from liberated Avdeyeka, so their wives and mothers can bury the pieces.

Civil war in Russia?
——-
Dream on, Vlad enjoys a 90 percent approval rating. Vlad is much like Trump, he does what he says, and he takes care of his citizens first.

I suggest you dump the corrupted western MSM and DOS/CIA narrative. Fact is, Russia has been around much longer than the US, and will be around much, much longer, in fact right up “ to the end”…..

…..the US under senile Joe is being severely divided , Russia under Vlad, extremely “ United”.
