Election results, who won
The final rating of Russian presidential candidates was published on March 19, 2018.
We vote for Grudinin, he is the only real candidate
"Dear" mister GDP - when will you deliver the people from your mediocre government?
For no one! for I don't see a worthy candidate! the old man's way - it's time to retire, the rest are his heirs! And no more ... The point of choosing them is the same as choosing the way - once again ... And now? I had a candidate, Aleksey Navalny. But they didn’t let him in - he is not beneficial to the authorities, because they’re a cap if he comes to power. That’s why they didn’t let him in .. I’m sorry for the country! cotton wool all the more!
Sorry for the country, but no cotton wool
Those who are in power are afraid, oh, how they are afraid of Grudinin. Therefore, endless streams of dirt pour on a person. We must drive the bloodsuckers!
Friends for Grudinin! Enough lies, corruption and sycophancy!
Only Grudinin !!! Otherwise, not only Siberia but also the European part of the country will be given to foreigners
Hope for Grudinin! I am for him!
Only Grudinin, a real candidate for the post of President. Tired of seeing how our people are becoming impoverished, living side by side with a handful of nouveau riches and officials who simply lost all human feelings profiting from what should belong to the entire nation. And how the court media took up arms against Grudinin, even Sobchak on the tenth plane. And here the command was given to all the media - to discredit Grudinin.
Our reality is as follows: Power, its people, does not see point-blank ... - This is wild, unpredictable capitalism, with all the ensuing consequences: Poverty, and constant debt holes from bloodsuckers ...
Only a socialist system is capable of giving an economic and ideological impetus to the development of the country (with the condition to remove all the negative human factor of the presence in government circles and the bureaucratic nomenklatura) that Pavel Grudinin proposes ... Only a strong country that has rid its people of slavery and poverty can achieve respect and recognition by other countries! Only the quality of life of all the people in the country can be an indicator of the level at which the country is among other developed civilized countries, and the period of Stalin's rule proved the correctness of the socialist system !!! The people are against the oligarchs and other bloodsuckers on the body of the people, and it is natural that thieves will dig the earth in order to prevent a person who can restore justice !!!
Grudinin personally writes comments here?)
I worked as a driver in the presidential administration for 15 years after a serious illness I was thrown out of the gate and I know how this government treats people and if it comes back to power for another 10 years of stagnation, it is guaranteed, therefore, it is necessary to change the government, I vote only for Grudinin
