Election results, who won
The final rating of candidates for the presidency of Russia was published on March 19, 2018.
No choices will help here. Look at history and you will understand that power changes only through a coup. They take one away and the other gets up. It is naive to think that the current president will give up his power so easily. He's not sick, and he understands that. So if you want a change of power, wait for a coup.
Thank you that we have such conscientious people, take your relatives by the hand, lead children of adults to vote for Grudinin !!!!!! Help Russia .... she is on her knees !!!!! Only we can help ourselves !!!!!!! The countryside has been destroyed. We look at cows like dinosaurs. The fields are overgrown. We will not stand another time!
Pechora for the People, for Grudinin.
After Mamashi from House-2 appeared among the candidates, it became clear that they decided to turn the elections into a show, and decided not to go to the polls. But after they began to pour mud on Grudinin, I realized that I must vote, and vote, precisely for Pavel Grudinin.
Save Mother Russia, people! Don't be lazy! There will be no more chance! Who does not want to think, let them find out what laws have been signed in the last months and what plans the current government has, .. !!!
The reaction of the authorities, the best proof that Grudinin is on the right track.
