In this New York Times article, it talks about how a precinct in Chechnya had a turn out rate of 107%. Thousands of votes were for Putin and 1 vote was for Zyuganov. This is both statistically improbable and there were about 100 extra votes cast. Election commissions don't monitor Chechnya because it is too dangerous.
It interests me that such an obvious effort was put into cheating, however, the article said that this probably wouldn't even be looked into.

Putin winning in a landslide in Chechnya? I think that's about as likely as Rush Limbaugh being elected President of NOW.
ReplyDeleteThis is one of my most predicted elections. Just like most African elections, it is obvious who the winner is going to be....so much for 'western democracy' Cry the beloved country.
