the amendment was voted twice more Russians, than it was in 1993, when we adopted the Constitution itself. Such a high level of support experts associated with the consolidation of society on the background of the pandemic – Russia has made a moral choice, and people support it, and of course, around the figure of the incumbent. If to consider not in the law, and in the human dimension, the nationwide vote essentially became a referendum on trust to Vladimir Putin.
on Thursday, the President turned with gratitude to the citizens who supported changes to the Constitution. “Modern Russia is, of course, is still in the stage of formation. This applies to all aspects of our lives: the political system, and economy, and so on. We are in many ways still very vulnerable, we have a lot, as they say, is made on the live thread. We need internal stability and time to strengthen the country and all its institutions. And so once again, thank you to those who supported the amendments,” he said during the meeting of the organizing Committee “Victory”.
“at the same time understand those of our citizens who voted against,” the President continued. He agreed that the country still has many problems people are confronted with injustice and indifference, many live hard, although the country’s leadership it seems that it makes everything possible. “But no, your life lives another, life shows that we are often not doing enough, and needs to act faster, more accurate, more organized, and more effective,” Putin said. The results of the vote, in his opinion, show that the vast majority of citizens believe government can work better. The latter’s task is “to do everything to justify the confidence of the people,” he added.
the Final results of the plebiscite, the CEC plans to bring on Friday. “But now we can say that a nationwide vote was held. At the moment we are not aware of any cases which may have at least some impact on the results that we see now,” said the head of the Commission Ella Pamfilova.
the whole country has been only one case of complete cancellation of the results in the plot in regard with the proven fact of ballot stuffing. “I think we need tough action to take. I believe that the people who discredited the work of the Commission, they have no place there” – said Pamfilova. In addition, during the recount of the partially cancelled data at 23 sites in six regions due to errors of the staff of election commissions.
In the regions of the final classifications sometimes differ quite markedly, which is quite natural – no one called the vote “a blueprint”. For example, in Chechnya, Tuva and the Crimea, the support level exceeded 90%. In Kamchatka, Magadan and Omsk regions, “Yes,” said 61-62%, and answer “no” leads the Nenets AutonomousNY district – half of the inhabitants of the amendments are not supported (here, as experts believe, the mood could influence the situation with the Association with the Arkhangelsk region). Whatever it was, it “confirms once again that the vote was as transparently as possible that the results are reliable,” said Ella Pamfilova.
Most importantly, given the pandemic, the voting process was secure and convenient for citizens. Breeding for a few days allowed us to avoid crowds at stations, plus everyone can choose when to come. Therefore, there are proposals to develop this format. “I think two-three days of voting in other elections would be a good format. Especially because this experience is in many countries”, – said the speaker of Council of Federation Valentina Matvienko.
Another new format – the choice online. The results of remote electronic voting in Moscow and Nizhny Novgorod region needs to dispel the doubts of those who feared the new procedure and suspected her of opacity or even handling. Compare the numbers. In the capital for amendments to the Constitution voted 62,33% of participants in deg against 37,67%. In the Nizhny Novgorod region – “Yes,” said 59,69%, “no” – of 40.31%.
the Spread between supporters and opponents of the new law less than the national average and less than in most regions who voted in the usual way. Take, for example, Bashkiria: 88,68% – over is 10.6% against. Or Saint-Petersburg: 77,66% – over 21,63% against. And in Moscow itself the final result on the traditional plots was higher than on the online voting: 65,26% – for and 30,84% against. The same pattern in the Nizhny Novgorod region – in total, the amendment was supported 79,31% of the population, not supported by 20,16%.
the CEC believe that electronic voting will be developing a request for this is already in the region. According to Ella Pamfilova, the Commission received many calls from outraged Russians who wanted to vote on the Constitution through the Internet, but their small home was not included in the number of participants.
For expanding the use of online voting, there are technical possibilities. The Minister Maksut Shadaev told the information center of the CEC that the portal, which went through the check at deg, coped with the increased load and can be registered for any number of users. Moreover, the number of accounts on the portal almost equal to the number of Russians eligible to vote.
overall vote throughout the country went smoothly, which was confirmed by observers. The voting process was watched by over 520 1600 thousand representatives of public organizations and 18 political parties. This is an unprecedented scale for the Russian election system.
during all the days of voting in the Public chamber of the Russian Federation worked ��etalony center, which took more than 52 thousand messages from observers from around the country, said the Executive Director of the Association “Independent public monitoring (Sam)” Alena Bulgakova. Signals about possible violations received 512, after verification it is revealed that 33 real facts of compliance with the law. 98 communications to the situation room, after checking, was recognized as false.
Experts analysed the reports and other sources. As told by the co-chair of the Association “Civil control”, a member of the HRC Alexander Brod, 92% of 1350 signals on the “Map of violations” of the movement “Voice” turned out to be fake. “Moreover, we noted that these reports once they are found to be inaccurate, not removed and no apologies and denials on the part of the moderators of the “Map of violations” does not appear”. Perhaps the reason is that the server of this organization is located in the US, provide a map in order difficult due to geographical remoteness, and most importantly – order on a lot of fakes and problem situations”, – said Alexander Brod.
activity from abroad is closely monitored and Russian parliamentarians. As told journalists the head of the Federation Council Commission for the protection of the sovereignty Andrei Klimau, the first day of voting, the senators identified several attack vectors from the outside. This is misinformation of Russian citizens on the line of the Western media-registered as foreign agents, the mass distribution of fakes in social networks, incitement to commit illegal acts, cyber attacks on the CEC website and other resources, as well as provocations unauthorized street protests.
“However, due to the high level of consciousness and responsibility of the overwhelming majority of Russian citizens, in a timely manner, preventive measures conceived abroad anti-Russian the play failed, as the de facto and de jure,” – stated Andrey Klimov. All the facts will be summarized and presented at the meeting of the Federation Council. “I do not exclude that in the result of the discussion, we will make recommendations for the improvement of the Russian legislation. This, of course, will have to be done with maximum consideration to support the people of constitutional amendments”, he added.
