Putin loses political ground in Russia Does the end of his government begin?
Russia has consistently stated that the change is now. He recently lost a third of power in the Moscow elections. The opposition called these elections a "smart vote", a way of inviting the population to shake off Putin's policies and start a new era.
Although Putin's party still holds 38 seats and is in the majority, this is the beginning of a new political period. However, it was known that from the Kremlin they are calm with the results.
Putin gives ground in elections
Much of the government believes that the results are opposite to what was predicted, although it is surprising that the Communists won 13 Moscow districts.
The population is unhappy with the current government and calls for a change of power in order to improve Russia's path. The electoral commission had rejected more than 57 opponents who brought their signatures to be registered and were rejected on the grounds that those signatures were false.
Of course, the opposition accused the electoral commission that they had carried out this fraud themselves. In the end, 57 opposition leaders were left out of the electoral contests.
Another trend that has not been defeated is participation in the vote. Only 21.6% of those authorized to vote participated in the polls. Curiously, this type of situation always favors the political machines that are in power and have the greatest resources, but apparently the smart vote has won this time.
The press has collected the opinions of all the parties, some are traitors and others are scoundrels. There are attacks by the government towards opponents and by opponents towards the government and other parties. In the end, Putin has lost a third of political control of the country.
