The Communist Party of the Russian Federation reported violations in the elections in the Krasnodar region

The violations recorded by the party concern the work of observers and violations of the rules for organizing mobile voting.

As "Kavkazsky Uzel" reported, more than 2.8 thousand polling stations opened today in Krasnodar Krai, where gubernatorial elections are taking place from September 12 to 14. Elections of city council deputies have also begun in Krasnodar, Anapa, and Sochi.

At polling station #2334, observers were placed 40 meters from the ballot box, the CPRF website reports. TEC member Alexander Arutyunov filed a complaint after unsuccessfully trying to change the location of the observers.

A member of precinct election commission #6120 in the Karasunsky district of Krasnodar encountered obstacles in moving around the polling station. He was also not allowed to film from the place where the observers were sitting. A member of the precinct election commission, whose name is not given on the CPRF website, has prepared a statement to the police and a complaint to the election commission.

At polling station No. 6121 in Krasnodar, the procedure for voting outside the premises was violated: a mobile ballot box was sent to conduct voting without placing data in the voter lists. In addition, at city polling station No. 6126, the procedure for sending the ballot box out was violated: the commission did not make a note in the voters' books about home voting. "This is a gross violation of the rules for holding elections. A complaint has been prepared," the party's website says.

Recall that 124 candidates were registered for the elections of deputies of the Sochi City Assembly. Residents of the city surveyed in August by the "Caucasian Knot" noted that there were many out-of-town candidates on the candidate lists, and assumed that the election results were predetermined.
