In Samara, the member of the precinct election Commission No. 2902 voting Natalia Baranova wrote a confession to the Prosecutor, stating that he had signed blank protocols of the voting results, which are then sent to the territorial election Commission, the Agency “Free news”.
Statement Baranova redirected to the Investigative Committee.
“In a nutshell, the violations were the following: physically, the ballots from the boxes and bins have not been restated. Just pretended to flip through the paper. As required by law, to calculate, to check, to make… And only that one shift, all this has not happened,” — said Baranov.
According to her, she signed blank protocols, because it put pressure on the Chairman of the PEC (on the website of the Electoral Commission of the Samara region listed them Vladimir Chelnokov — ed.).
His decision Baranova explained by the desire to know the real results on its site, as even at her estimated turnout on the weekend was significantly lower than indicated in the protocols. In the protocols, continues the woman are “unnaturally large numbers for the candidate from “United Russia”, which before the election nobody knew.”
“If I was alone, I wouldn’t dare. I relied on the Communist party, but I see nothing. So today I will be alone again. Yesterday I called and said that I was summoned by the investigators, said: “we Wish you success. Tell, how was” she confessed. — I’m from the “Fair Russia” a member of the Commission with deliberative vote. But they were also not interested. After the election I called them to headquarters reported that I Baranova, plot so-and-so, copies of the minutes I took. Since then, it took much time, they do not call not call, so I gave these copies of the protocols, which they allegedly handed over to TIK,” continued Baranov.
According to article 142.1 of the Russian Criminal code, for falsification of results of voting is threatened by punishment up to deprivation of liberty for a term up to four years.
