According to experts, the All-Russian Public Opinion Research Center traditionally demonstrates a high level of support for the authorities, since 100% of the company's shares belong to the state.
Published earlier anti-rating of candidates contains the names of those for whom the Russians do not want to vote in the elections.
Election results, who won
The final rating of candidates for the presidency of Russia was published on March 19, 2018.

VTsIOM Stop licking the hole and lying! Don't blow up Russia, we live here!
Twenty-odd years down the drain, took out this Promisedkin, and at the exit "0". I am surprised to the clan of lovers of the “great helmsman” how much their brains have shrunk, everyone laughed at the Ukrainians, but look at yourself, zombified. We will die, but we will not allow change
The published ratings do not correspond to online voting on this site and on many others, where the leader is not Putin, but Grudinin, not to mention the unequivocal leadership of Putin. In most of the Internet voting, Grudinin's rating has already exceeded 50%
The question is not in a specific person (Putin, Grudinin, etc.), but in whether Russia will be able to withstand the war with the West and Jewish capital. Capitalist Russia has no chance. But socialist (and Orthodox) Russia can win. And he will win. No economic growth and prosperity, especially in the conditions of the blockade, is impossible with the reduction of the indigenous population and its segregation along property lines. Only expanded reproduction, which is possible only when one worker at his own salary can provide for a family of 5 people, and the state (media, social sphere, church, ... all social institutions) and the family, preferably by personal example, work together on the upbringing and education of the growing up generations that can keep us from sliding into the funnel of degradation. Otherwise, there will soon be no one to defend the country. We will all simply die out or they will destroy us from the outside ...
We have little choice - either to survive together or die one by one. Therefore, only Socialism and only for Grudinin! We are Russians, God is with us!
There is such a concept as "people's rating".
By March 1, 2018, everything will fall into place.
Everyone will get what they deserve.
All this is being formed to rig the elections.
Complete nonsense and falsification
This is all bogus data! They will falsify the elections.
Somehow, the data of VTsIOM are at variance even with the voting that is being conducted on this site. This involuntarily leads to certain thoughts ... One way or another, there is no time and desire to wait another 6 years! I am for Grudinin P.N.!
Here's how to understand? You communicate with your friends and acquaintances live, you communicate on the Internet - 90% of them say “in no case am I going to vote for Putin!” And if you look at the ratings, everything is supposedly for him)))
One of two things - either you are insolently lobbying for putinoid, or the government has zombified the country so much that people have turned off their brains completely: they do not notice that salaries, unlike utilities and food, do not grow. That children in schools are taught unnecessary subjects, and even parents are being charged for what should be done at public expense.
That children from a young age go without teeth - dentistry has become completely paid, one tooth with caries is at least 3000 rubles! Where to get money for the treatment of teeth of the whole family for a salary of 12 thousand ???
Let this state die if it helps other countries, and the poor people collect money for the treatment of their own children!
I wrote everything correctly !!!
And I have other data, all my friends and acquaintances are for PUTIN! If you don't like the country, nobody is holding you, the doors are open, and cursing your homeland is a sin. And the people are not beggars !!!
If you go out and do a poll, then the result is 90% for Putin. Why is everyone for Putin, because there are no competitors, they don't like Zhirinovsky for his vivid emotions, who is Grudinin in general, appeared on TV a couple of times? For example, they know more about Bulk than about Titov and Sterninin. Sobchak is the host of the show house2, well, this is not a candidate. I will give my vote to Zhirinovsky, 71 years old, the last elections
That's right! I vote for Grudinin! Non-partisan, 32 years old, MSC region.
