Despite the withdrawal from the election as soon as three serious candidates have a good chance of winning election as mayor in Arkhangelsk continue to intrigue.
Moreover, the situation was exacerbated in Arkhangelsk and increased meeting activity. Known in Arkhangelsk obŝestvennik, leader of the social movement “My shelter” Vasily Pozdeev calls upon all the inhabitants of Arkhangelsk, who are not indifferent to the future of the city, come January 28 at 12 p.m. on rally at the monument to Lenin. The main theme of the rally, he refers to the situation with the election of a mayor, and participate in the meeting invites and failed candidates samovydvižencev, inviting them to “talk about the incident not be silent”.
As it became known BakuToday, at the head of the pre-election headquarters of Stanislav Govorukhin, Vladimir Putin, with arhangelogorodcami he was transferred to a letter that local supporters of Putin and the “United Russia” very concerned about the situation on the election of the Mayor. The authors of the letter even offered to cancel the elections of Mayor in Arkhangelsk and move them to a later date.
The situation with the withdrawal of candidates has intensified and the so-called “vnesistemnuû opposition”-22 January regular meeting was held in Arkhangelsk organizing movement for fair elections “. During this meeting, inter alia, noted that among more than a dozen samovydvižencev gathering signatures to participate in the election of the Mayor and in by-elections in the district, only current mayor was able to gather signatures, which are not rejected, the city Electoral Commission. The situation at the elections of the Mayor of Arkhangelsk, the representatives of the movement appealed to the people of the city to take part in the rally and demonstration 4 February. Recipe solution to the problem of the elections, the opposition believes his proposal to play all the candidates, leaving the Mayor’s only challenger for the post of Mayor.
But there is another way. In fact, the election of the Mayor of Arkhangelsk clearly demarcated three main electoral group. The first is that portion of the electorate, which has already made the choice of candidates, who will vote. The experience of the last election, we can say that any minority. The second group of protestno configured townspeople, obviously disgruntled as the situation in the city, and how is the situation with the election of the Mayor. And third-party supporters, those candidates who have been excluded from participation in elections, INEC. Today, these people have not yet had time to decide how they behave, who give their sympathy.
According to observers, the most narrow electoral field-serving the city authorities. Other candidates for the increase in the number of supporters is significantly broader.
Observers believe that the campaign can be implemented an idea that has already been realized. It lies in the fact that, in addition to its own electoral potential candidates and attempts to attract the segment, the focus of the protest on one of the registered candidates potential challengers, earlier “cut” file to the signatures. This scenario has already been implemented in the Arkhangelsk region in the elections of the Governor of the region in 2004. As we have informed, on the basis of a vote of Governor bypassed a little-known then the Director of the factory “milk” Nikolai Kiselev.
Probably in the near future to obtain this support will be a coalition around the already registered candidate. That would invite other members of the Coalition “joint candidate” if elected? Most likely, the post of Deputy in City Hall. The best known of unregistered candidates are Alexander Donskoy and Ernest Belokorovin.
You can assume that the fact that and Don, and unregistered Larisa Bazanova are marginal opposition and Belokorovin is a member of the “United Russia”, likely to join a registered candidate (Hope Vinogradova or Basil Badanina) immediately with all the unregistered contenders will not happen, and would affect only one of them.
