The first polling stations in the Russian presidential elections opened their doors on Friday morning in the Far East of Russia as part of a three-day poll.
Due to the time difference, voting began on Friday at eight in the morning in the Kamchatka Peninsula and in the Chukotka region in the Far East of Russia.
The Russian Election Commission announced earlier that voting in the country’s presidential election will continue for three days, March 15-16-17.
Four candidates are competing in these presidential elections: current President Vladimir Putin as an independent candidate, the candidate of the “Russian Liberal Democratic Party” Lonid Slutsky, the candidate of the “Russian Communist Party” Nikolai Kharitonov, and the candidate of the “New People’s Party” Vlaslav Davankov.
Earlier, on Wednesday, Russian President Vladimir Putin called on all citizens to vote strongly in the presidential elections, stressing that Russia’s fate is determined only by its citizens.
