88?? I can't believe that, with all these candidates!!
In East Germany the people loved their nation most only weeks before collapse: 99,92% voted for the pro-soviet government.
Then the CIA dropped 20 million agents from invisible helicopters which fakes mass demonstrations and used mind-control rays to make them love the west and hate the soviet union.
In the first election after reunification the Communists got 11,1% of all votes in Former East Germany. Damned CIA mind control rays.
Have they voted yet, or is 88% what they decided the result is going to be?
If he's going to lie he should lie big, like his pal in North Korea. Tell everyone he won with 189% of the total votes. Nobody outside his cult is going to believe him either way.
"according to exit polls"
when do you get to call a dictator a dictator? when he stops with the pretend elections?
88 just happens to be a Nazi reference used by white supremacists. Curious coincidences.
I just want to point out here that this is what many Trump voters are hoping for. If you’re a US citizen, please vote in November.
They've been pushing "both options suck so why bother" rhetoric really hard too. They know they can't get people to vote for trump so their best bet is to get them not to vote
even in a rigged election that stupid cunt isn't able to achieve over 90%. what an absolute worthless sucker!
Fast forward to the point where you put an end to your miserable life you russian fuck and finally relieve us from your existence!
If you're rigging an election, it can be better politically to give yourself 65% of the vote than 97% of the vote.
97% is obviously fake. 65% is easier to make people beleive in.
I dare you to scroll these comments until you find a hexbear CCP cuck insulting the "liberal west", it'll be a fun 20 seconds.
One of my favorite traditions is world leaders congratulating Putin the day before Russian elections.
Accidents already planned for the administrators who allowed the 12% through.
Why do they bother with this show? Do Russians think they live in a democracy? Who is this for?
It's all to keep up appearances. You keep up the propaganda and fake news and some people will be no the wiser. I'm sure there's many who know that this is fake but there's also some who just accept the propaganda.
This month's list of executions is relatively long
saying “nobody in history has ever succeeded” in suppressing the will of Russians
Nobody except you
And Stalin
And the Monarchies
Practically everyone except Nicholas II succeeded in that.
Election, my arse 🤦🏻♂️
I suspect that Trump will congratulate him on his win soon.
Managed Democracy carefully selected the best candidate for each citizen to vote for. According to the best algorithms.
Those quote marks around the 'wins' are just great.
88% is so typical - for Nazis it means the eight letter of the alphabet twice, which means "Heil Hitler". Given that the Z symbol of his genocidal war looks like a half Swastika we can now finally agree: Putin is the reincarnation of Hitler.
I would like to see Trump talk about the 12% of fake voters that Russia has.
Isn't this a failure? He didn't have any real opposition, 88% is an abysmal result.
