Transcripts For RUSSIA1 Vibori 20240704

So, according to the Public Opinion foundation, Vladimir Putin will win the 2024 russian president ial elections with a result 87. 8 . Nikolai kharitonov took second place with 4. 7 . Third is Vladislav Davankov, who scored 3. 6 , and fourth place is taken by Leonid Slutsky, with 2. 5 . The allrussian center for the study of Public Opinion provides the following exit poll data from Vladimir Putin. 87 , Nikolai Kharitonov 4. 6 , Vladislav Davankov 4. 2 , and Leonid Slutsky 3 . Obviously, the leader of the election race is clear, but the gap between the other participants is not so great, the final places may well change, especially since the rating was not compiled as a result of the actual counting of ballots, but based on surveys of citizens leaving the polling stations. Now we only receive a direct signal from the Election Commission center. That the chairman of the commission, ella pomfilova, came to the journalists, apparently, the central Election Commission is already ready to announce the first, albeit preliminary, but already official data about these elections, and lets listen to what the chairman is talking about, she is incredibly worthy, as a single, united people, understanding what these elections mean for us and for our future, everything is very worthy, despite everything. As our people deserve, our voters , well, together we are strong, we voted for russia, and now the data that after certain, now at this moment, well , maybe has changed a little during the time i i said these words in 3 minutes. 24. 4 of the protocols have been processed, now it is in progress, here are the protocols, further, preliminary results dovankov, vladislav andreevich, votes cast, i repeat once again, after processing 24, 4, 667. 448. 29. 260, that is, 2. 96 so far. Kharitonov. Nikolai mikhailovich votes cast 681 1,309 total 3. 8 . But colleagues, these are preliminary results, the counting continues, i ask all observers, all those working, to be as attentive as possible, just like our colleagues. So that we go through this period with dignity. So, these were the first preliminary data of the Election Commission center, which are based on ballots counted up to this minute, it is obvious that they will still change. Our correspondent aleksey konopko now works at cic; he is in direct contact with the studio. Alexey, good evening, but we are only that we saw that you are holding a briefing by ella pomfilova, what can you add . Yes, hello, im looking at the broadcast of the briefing with one eye, indeed we already. Know the first numbers and we know that Vladimir Putin is gaining very similar indicators to what was given by the exit poll, that is, almost 88 based on the results of processing the quarter of all ballots in the country. In general, the results are summed up quite quickly, but the simple fact is that our country is very large, and where polling stations close earlier than in kaliningrad, they are published immediately, ballots begin immediately count when this time cutoff passes at 21 00, when you can already. The final result, although i can already sign all the sheets, only then they will announce it already to predict from the experience of past years, by the next morning, by tomorrow morning they will remain uncounted, some may be a maximum of tenths of a percent of all ballots. Lets move on to the turnout, before we heard these first numbers, the Voting Results, the turnout was probably the main one, but. In the last few hours, it has already significantly exceeded the results of 2018 year and comes very close to the absolute record for the entire modern history of russia in the ninetyfirst year, when the president of the rsfsr was elected, there were 74 and a half, even a little more, now only the inperson turnout is 73 and almost a half, and the news is that there is also electronic voting , and the data even on inperson turnout is not final, ill probably name a few. Its interesting that eight villages in chukotka showed one hundred percent turnout, everyone came to vote. In moscow, a few hours before the end of voting, 5 Million People gave their votes, made their choice, and for large cities these are actually very good indicators, this is about 2 3, now, judging by what i see on the screens, both moscow and st. Petersburg already have about 70 turnout, this is necessary to say, quite a lot, and of course, i will note that. New regions voted very actively, in the dpr the turnout was more than 88 , in the lpr the final turnout was 87. 12, in the zaporozhye region more than 85, in the kherson region 83. 87. Well, perhaps its worth dwelling on the belgorod region, which in recent days has been especially suffering from terrorist attacks. Shelling, here, despite all the difficulties, the turnout exceeded 85 . Lets hear what people around the country had to say about why they came. Its quite a difficult time on the world stage, they are trying to squeeze us everywhere , to crush us, so its as if everyones voice here is important, its better to unite and Pay Attention to what we do within the country for ourselves, for our country, we dont Pay Attention to the fact that someone builds intrigues, the leader who will lead our country will set the vector along which we will go for our country, so that it worked out well, so that the sky would be blue, so that everyone would have a wonderful and good life in this world, so that the grandchildren after us. Just rejoice, the minimum possible number of violations in these elections is another distinctive feature, on the first day here in the central bank of russia received about 350 messages that. Which were released in the country, those who brought brilliant green managed to spoil one millionth of them, but it must be said that if there were few violations, then there was a lot of interference, here about electronic interference, about interference in the operation of websites, remote electronic voting, the relevant minister said. Cyber ​​demons, there were a lot of attacks here , i think a tory will talk about this in more detail, but i want to say that we probably had the peak attack, it. Was on the first day from 13. 00 to 14. 00, that is there was probably a peak, which means the load, that means how much we recorded there, 2. 5 million requests per second went to the system, this is of course also a record in this sense, that in general the infrastructure coped with such a load, well, as for those who violated at the polling stations, the experts here have already commented. Yes, tatyana, good evening, indeed the atmosphere is very lively, very emotional, there are a lot of our colleagues here who are now discussing, and before we started our inclusion we discussed, first of all, what these numbers mean, well, here are a few conclusions, of course, we we understand that the figures are still preliminary, they will change, but one way or another, in 1918 , Vladimir Putins result was approximately 76 , now here according to all data, according to all exit polls, it is approximately 8788 who sound like this right now. Numbers, that is, it is at least 10 . What does it mean . This, of course, is incredible support, incredible unity of society around Vladimir Putin, and a powerful political signal, including a political signal to western countries, because whatever the western sanctions and now in the context of a special military operation, society is demonstrating an incredible degree of unity around president of russia, a colossal gap, not even several times, tens of times compared with. With other candidates who participated in these elections. Of course, today everyone is discussing the work of the headquarters, remembering the key milestones of this company. Let me remind you that it is the eighth. December Vladimir Putin announced in the kremlin his decision to run for another term as president of russia. On december 21, this headquarters began its work here, we also visited here often, discussed and met with the cochairs of the headquarters, they are discussing the work, which was actually extremely largescale, because signatures were collected all over the country, meetings were held in dozens of regions, including new regions of russia, which took part in president ial elections for the first time, ours. Countries and what is important to emphasize is that this is not just a meeting, this is a constructive, meaningful discussion, which was conducted by the cochairs of headquarters, trusted representatives, discussed the problems that exist in the country, and of course the question of how the country lives, how the country will live, here it is appropriate to recall the recent president ial message, where the head of state announced the launch of five new National Projects, so i would like to emphasize once again that we are waiting appearances here. For the candidate from the communist party of the Russian Federation Nikolai Kharitonov, this is not the first participation in the president ial race; in 2004 he managed to get just over 13. 5 of the votes and take second place. What result are they hoping for in this one . We begin to wait for Gennady Zyuganov, the leader of the communist party of the Russian Federation, who for this campaign headed the election headquarters of Nikolai Kharitonov and the president ial candidate Nikolai Kharitonov, together they must give the first comment, here at this table, well, you see the microphones, there are so many of them that you even touch them, and also no less than 15, here we are waiting, the press conference itself will start any minute. And im looking to see if they, in fact, are going out of the window , regarding the exit polls, regarding the exit polls, here we were expecting approximately the same result, they reacted calmly to the announcement of the results, but half an hour before that we were able to talk with Gennady Zyuganov and Nikolai Kharitonov, this is what they told us about their expectations. Nikolai mikhailovich, you are probably receiving information from the eastern regions of the country, where most of the ballots have already been counted. So do you understand the trend in principle, to what extent, what result do you expect . We hope for a decent result, a respectful result from voters for our program, for my candidacy. Gennady andreevich, what results do you expect from your candidate . The result of the party in power is ours, it will determine the future fate of this strategic region. That is, in the country you are counting on second place, well, i am sure that it will not just be second place. The goal of this Election Campaign on your part was to promote. Your ideas maximum, and we managed to do it. The United States of america with its brutal muscovites from all over western europe have fallen on us, trying to drag us out economically and physically, but of course, the whole people are consolidating, and we, our party, are not on the sidelines. Well, ill clarify the position of the communist party of the Russian Federation once again , regardless of the result, as far as we know, Nikolai Kharitonov has approximately second place in this company, they believe that the goals. Communist party of the Russian Federation km, that is, they have actually encircled the earth along the equator, they are sure that many initiatives have traveled more than 4000 by air on earth were already taken into account by the president in his message to the federal assembly, which he announced recently in february, so the company, they believe, was successful, well, directly. Thank you, evgeniy, my colleague evgeniy roshkov now works at Nikolai Kharitonovs headquarters. So, at this moment, approximately a quarter of all ballots have been processed, according to the Election Commission center, Vladimir Putin takes first place, 87. 75 of russians voted for the current head of state, followed by Nikolai Kharitonov with a result of 3. 9 . On the third line. Here is very concentrated, here we are now in the very heart of the federal Electoral Center of lyanetslutsk, behind me the information Monitoring Center is very clearly visible, all information from all regions of russia is received here in real time, party members, volunteers work there, they are closely monitoring how the situation is developing, and of course , here now its very tense, as i rightly said, theres a tense working atmosphere, because everyone, of course, wants to get the first data, well, within a few hours before the actual counting of votes , Leonid Slutsky came out to reporters and held a short briefing, he talked about the Election Campaign, what they paid attention to, and how is the atmosphere in his election headquarters now . Here, at the ldpr election headquarters , the kolchuga election Monitoring Center continues to operate, a call center that receives calls from all over the country, so far we have received some irregularities. Very insignificant and there is no need to even talk about it as a violation. Observers are still in the majority say absolutely positive assessments. Indeed, the founder of the party, Vladimir Zhirinovsky , most of all, acted as candidates for the presidency of russia six times, this is really the first time when another leader acts as a candidate for the president of russia, leonid slusky, by the majority of parties on december 19 of this year he was elected as a candidate , and on february 21 he presented his program on vorobyovo gory, and the main thesis of this program is victorious and early victory in the special military operations, so this was his Election Campaign, he visited about 17 regions of russia, started from annadre from the far east to the very western regions of russia and based on all opinions, all voters, he actually drew up his election program, well, thats about it , in fact. How successful the company was and what it led to, we will find out very soon, although the preliminary results are already known, and you, tatyana, talked about them. Thank you, my colleague, dmitry kastra, works at the headquarters candidate from the ldpr party, Leonid Slutsky. And now we are transported to the headquarters of another candidate, Vladislav Dvankov, for whom this is also the first president ial election. Our correspondent ainur valiakhmetov works there, he has direct contact with the studio. Ainur, greetings, what are the moods in the camp of new people . Tatyana, good evening, but the hottest time begins at the headquarters of candidate davankov, the first results are already there, right now supporters and volunteers are starting to analyze, but in fact every election headquarters, who voted how, of course , the regions are also involved in this work, let me remind you that Vladislav Davankov has over seventy Regional Headquarters now carrying out just such analytical work, Vladislav Davankov himself, the headquarters arrived at 5 00 local time in moscow and. Arrived after voted in rotny smolensk. Lets listen to what he said. Our headquarters is in such a state of bated breath, we are already waiting for the end of the elections, we still have a whole night of watching the summing up of the results, but no, the mood is good, look, all the guys are young, this is our First Experience participation in the president ial elections, so no, everything is fine, expectations are good, i traveled through 29 regions, i just returned from smolensk, my hometown. I havent seen the School Director for 23 years, i voted right there, i just returned an hour ago, and now ill be here with my staff to wait for the election results. It must be said that work here did not stop at the moment when the polling stations were opened, because the headquarters of candidate davankov actually turned into a Situation Center where supporters and volunteers could observe in real time how the voting process was going on, here i must say that from march 14 , Vladislav Davankovs headquarters switched to roundtheclock operation, and there was a call center here where residents of different regions of russia could call and ask about the voting process. As for the candidate himself, Vladislav Davankov, the youngest candidate for the post of head of state, he is 40 years old, originally from smolensk, in big politics, despite the fact that he has only been with. During this time, the party has still had enough time accumulate a target audience; supporters of candidate dovankova are also present here. Lets listen to them. The most important thing that we took away from this company is, of course, meetings with people, numerous meetings with people, trips, work in the regions, the proposals that were made, we are a parliamentary party, so we take everything that was expressed by people during these meetings into the work, and thats what well be with. News up to this minute. Thank you. Ainur valiakhmetov works at the headquarters of the candidate from the new people party, Vladislav Dvankov. All for three days of inperson voting, belgorod lived under terrorist attacks from ukrainian militants. In the border areas there are Russian Military and fsb border guards. They systematically destroyed sabotage groups that tried to enter our territory. But all these alarming events did not produce the media effect kiev expected. Quite the contrary, it only united the residents of the region, who were not afraid of the shelling, it is impossible. Threats, how, despite all the difficulties, the voting took place live , we learn from alexander revunov, he went to direct connection. Alexander, you have the floor. Yes, hello, tatyana, indeed, the last few days have become a real test of strength for the residents of the belgorod region. Several times a day, here, over the city, an air raid signal sounds and notifications come from the ministry of emergency situations. The city is being attacked by drones and attacked by multiple Rocket Launcher systems, including westernmade ones. Of course, most of these charges shoot down our air defense crews even as they approach the city, but still we are forced to talk about the tragedy that these terrorist attacks lead to, and it is impossible to call it any other way, so this morning a sixteenyearold teenage girl died, a ukrainian shell exploded in her room, and in the afternoon the canana sounded over the city again. There was an air raid signal again, this time a Cluster Munition detonated, the fragments killed a seventyfouryearold pensioner, he left the house just to buy medicine near a pharmacy, and it exploded next to these shopping arcades shell, killed, wounded, this is every day in belgorod, the governor of the region comes every day to these places, to the places of these emergencies, talks with the victims, with their relatives, with people, goes into houses, in general, they find out everything that can be done for these. People who are overwhelmed by grief, they will definitely do something to the authorities. Well, in addition, the governor also personally visited many polling stations and talked with members of Election Commissions. Unprecedented steps have been taken to ensure security in the region, including every member the Election Commission has completed courses in emergency medicine, knows how to act in case of an emergency, where to go, what to do . At each polling station, socalled Division First aid kits are stored, there is a shelter where. Alexander, thank you, from belgorod, our correspondent, alexander rivunov, was live. Another attempt to break through the border by terrorist sabotage groups was thwarted today. Ukrainian mi8, which. The kiev regime is trying to enter the village of kazinka this time and forming the kiev regime tried to organize a tactical landing by helicopter, but the helicopter was destroyed by our fighters using a portable. Verbo missile system, a military transport helicopter mi8, a military mi8, was shot down in the border area, and, in fact, the wreckage fell on ukrainian territory, we have footage of the burning wreckage of this helicopter, it is not possible to inspect the crash site now, since the formations of the kiev regime are conducting barrage fire on this territory, there was even an attempt to organize. The attempt was unsuccessful, as the helicopter was evacuated from the crash site, but russian units continue to attack concentrations of enemy personnel and equipment. Let me remind you that the kiev regime has been forming for several days now, in particular the special forces militants of the main intelligence directorate, the ministry of defense of ukraine, who have been assigned armored vehicles. Who are assigned army aviation, are trying, one way or another, to break into our line of defense, in fact in two places, in the area of ​​​​the International Checkpoint nikhoteevka in the area of ​​​​the village of kazinka, the village is located directly on the border , they use artillery, but suffer huge losses, really huge this is not an exaggeration, it is worth saying that since march 10 , the enemy has lost more than one and a half thousand People Killed and wounded, more than tit. Tanks , dozens of armored vehicles, and dozens of other equipment, for example, pickup trucks with largecaliber machine guns, but at the same time the enemy continues to try to attack, right now the kiev regime is being formed, and the russian army is being destroyed. Tatiana. Eugene, thank you, Evgeny Poddubny reports live on the situation in the border areas of the belgorod region. He is now on the territory himself. Air defenses have struggled to intercept missiles and drones while to the east south of belgorod the russian army has battled antikremev militias, but there are no signs that the saboteurs efforts have been successful. For many belgorod residents, such attacks only increase support for putin. As the american newspaper notes, even before apolitical citizens in the current extremely dangerous conditions can no longer remain outside of politics, so among those who have felt the consequences of the war firsthand. All respondents planned to come to the elections and vote for the current president. Larisa, a 58yearold manicurist who had to flee to a shelter on thursday to escape a missile attack, said she would vote for putin. We must give him the opportunity to complete the matter, she said. For the first time in these russian president ial elections, people voted new regions of the donetsk and lugansk peoples republics, kherson and zaporozhye regions. For their residents, who have had to go through a lot in recent years, the current. Vote has become another answer to the question of how they see their future. High turnout, including in frontline areas, and what is especially significant in recently liberated settlements, is evidence of this. Our correspondents, military correspondents, and vgtrk work in all four new regions, who today serve as political observers. Grigory vdovin, Nikolai Dolgachev, ruslan bikbulatov and anton stepanenko. And first donetsk, the floor to grigory vdovin. Gregory, greetings, how was the main election day . Which is already clear from the Voting Results, good evening, tatyana, yes, indeed, polling stations in donetsk were closed today, they closed in the middle of the day, and this is caused. Due to the specifics in which the region is located, the counting of votes began immediately, there is already quite accurate data, which should not change much and radically, in principle, i hope that we are in during the course of this inclusion we will hear this data, as they say, firsthand, but the turnout is very, very very high, what else can be said, that in general we need to understand that due to the fact that here in the republic in donetsk. The republic has been fighting with a fairly high intensity, in fact for 10 years now, a scenario of a special voting regime was chosen here, since the territories are frontline and it was impossible to allow a large concentration of people in one place at one time, so voting was also early, all who wanted to vote, had many opportunities, options, how when it could be done, it should be noted that in the Donetsk Republic the desire of the people. Here we are, being in donbass, now once again we see that donbass is being helped, protected, restored , are being built by russians from all over our country. People have shown that they cannot be intimidated, despite the fact that the shelling does not stop, of course, with the capture of avdiivka, at least in the center of donetsk it became significantly, noticeably quieter, but on the outskirts. Cities and gorlovka, in longsuffering gorlovka, the intensity of shelling is not decreasing, people have come to the polling stations. We are now taking an important part in an important event, electing our president , the president of the Russian Federation. Well, were not afraid of anything at all, theyve been trying to intimidate us for 10 years already, theyve tried to instill something in us, but this. Has absolutely no effect, we are already so selfpossessed that we are probably not afraid of anything anymore, we have been waiting for this event for a long time, this event is historical, in my soul i am russian, i am there all the time, thats all, i am not i didnt leave here anywhere, nothing, i was waiting for you , and you came, im very glad, the words of the last interlocutor, we recorded them in avdeevka in the basement, in general it was. A very incredibly touching meeting, people were waiting there with their passports ready special Election Commission for special purposes, as it is called, in an armored car, it moves around the frontline areas and gives the opportunity to vote to people who cannot get to some quieter places, including in avdeevka , even me and the people were able to vote there they consider it necessary to vote, because for them it is. And i propose to listen to the first data, the latest about how many people voted and to whom they gave their votes. 100 of the votes for davankov vladislav andreevich were processed, 23,778 votes were cast, which is 1. 33. 1,705,786 votes were cast for Vladimir Vladimirovich putin, which is 95. 23 . 27,360 votes were cast for Leonid Eduardovich slutsky, which is 1. 53 . And 29. 3 votes were given for Nikolai Mikhailovich kharitonov, which is 1. 62 . Grigory, thank you, in direct communication from donetsk, with the first Voting Results grigory vdovin. In the lugansk peoples republic , a lot of work was done during the russian president ial elections. 600 polling stations, despite all attempts by kiev to intimidate residents of the region, organize terrorist provocations or somehow influence their desire to come and cast their vote, the turnout is recordbreaking. Now Nikolai Dolgachev is going live. Nikolay, good evening, what is your atmosphere like on this final day and how did the whole company go . Yes, tatyana, hello, for several hours now , votes have been actively counted in the lugansk peoples republic. At 16 00 today the polling stations closed, this is due, well, to the peculiarities of the moment and to the fact that the curfew is in effect, the Election Commissions need time to have time to count, but everyone who had such a desire was able to exercise their right to vote, early voting was carried out from march 11 to march 14 in frontline areas, where members of Election Commissions themselves went to people in order to reduce risks and prevent crowds of people at polling stations, from the 15th. Voting began in the rear areas, we observed here how literally from the very morning there were queues at the polling stations, many wanted to vote first, by the end of march 15, 36 of registered voters cast their the votes, according to the results of the sixteenth, are already 64 , and the final figure today is 87. 12 of voters registered in the lugansk peoples republic, all cities that have already been liberated from. Ukrainian occupation cast their votes in these elections. In general 581 polling stations were operating under difficulties. All forms of voting that were implemented on the territory of the lugansk peoples republic were in great demand. I would probably still like to thank our voters for their active turnout, thank the members of the commission who helped us organize, prepare and conduct the elections at a decent level. All areas were there. Ukrainian formations tried to interfere with the holding of president ial elections in the Russian Federation in the lugansk region, in several areas a missile danger was declared, in trabelsk on march 15, several polling stations were evacuated, but later continued their work and. Everyone was able to exercise their right to vote, today the enemy struck alchevsk, an Apartment Building and a kindergarten, fortunately there were no casualties , and also today in the city of rovenki, the enemys kamikaze drones also struck, but fortunately there were no casualties to the enemy, it was not possible to interfere with the holding of elections in our region, they will never forget in life, because we are russian people. This is of no use to us, no one , not america, no one forgets us, and especially europe, our people cannot be scared, because we have such a patriotic spirit that we do not give up, we will achieve everything we want, all people take themselves, so to speak, in their hands, and they come and vote. And they give, so to speak , the right choice, because we have a strong people, a strong state, and so to speak, the people of donbass are a great example for everyone, we cannot be intimidated, we are only forward, well, it is worth noting that there is a special warm atmosphere indeed, i was at the polling stations, many congratulated each other on the holiday for the residents in which they are participating, thats about the atmosphere, about how they voted in the lugansk region, just recently. My colleague, the author of the presenter of the moscow Kremlin Putin program , comes out from his headquarters , pavel zarubin. Pavel, hello, we are waiting for details from you that, as usual, only you saw. Hello, well, we have a special episode of the moscow krill Putin Program coming up. We always show more than others, and today we promise to show much more more than others. Well, first of all, of course, we will show the most interesting shots of this week. Of course, one of the most important events of the week was the interview with vladimir. You all saw this interview, a lot of important statements were made there, but no one has yet seen what was behind the scenes of this interview, here we are, i promise you that, if possible, of course, we will show these fragments, since today we are working in live broadcast in wheel mode, so everything can be live, but we will try to show you these fragments, now you are right, we are in the election headquarters of Vladimir Putin, and if journalists find. We know that they are ready here, well, this happens almost always, they are ready, the room for press conferences is ready, perhaps he will meet with volunteers, now we are following the route that Vladimir Putin may possibly take, well, here you can now see several doors behind me, and in each of these doors, in each of these halls today, we hope, they will. Various events, and what kind of events these will be, you and i will see everything live on the russia tv channel, dont go anywhere in the next few hours. Tatyana , pavel, thank you, he works at Vladimir Putins election headquarters, pavel, zarubin, now we give the floor to our colleagues in the studio of the Program Evening with Vladimir Solovyov, the host and his guests, politicians and public figures, will discuss the turnout in the elections and the first results. Thank you, of course, absolutely amazing elections, it is obvious that the current president ial elections in the Russian Federation have become unprecedented, despite all attempts from the outside to prevent russians from exercising their right to vote, voter turnout was a record high in the entire modern history of russia, provocations did not work, on the contrary, our people went to vote despite the endless stream of lies, threats, shelling, yes, special attention and new things. Regions of our country, the proximity of the front, threats from bandera , shelling did not prevent residents from reaching the polling stations, well, now that belgorod is absolutely a hero city, and of course, when you look at these people who say do you think that you can you stop us from being ours, do you think that you can intimidate us, but this will never happen, i was wondering what to call these elections . And i realized that this was a roll call of our own , well, the results were obvious, i think this is no secret to anyone, but how the people went to vote, how many people there were, how people wanted their voice to be heard, how they , no matter what country they were in, even if fate found them abroad, they went and showed that we are here, before passing the floor to margarita, our people work there guys, look, 250 employees of a company from yekaterinburg and simeland are in china, they put on a whole show in china, this is how they voted, its immediately clear for whom, really its immediately clear, that is, its immediately clear that there are no illusions, that no one tried to do anything, people sent me videos from everywhere today, from france. America, italy, but the most important thing, of course, is our country, when people specifically filmed themselves saying that yes, im here, yes, my vote is counted, yes, ive come, im in the ranks. We are one people, and we say to the whole world , which has something to ask us, we have something to tell you, we are russia, we are invincible, and putin is our president , i completely agree with you, volodya, what is this, thank you for this brilliant formulation, that these are elections, a roll call of our own, these elections with a phenomenal result, which is already clear to almost 90 . Like american literature, not on this charming arrogance, like english literature, it is based on what is described in kuprins story brigette, who didnt count, read it, it will definitely take 5 minutes, he very short, when the parutchik chakmarev committed suicide, because he wrote in his suicide note, i was left with a choice between death in shame, in such a situation i, of course, cannot. And this famous episode with borscht with worms, and potemkin on the battleship , what was this bund about . This riot was about dignity, thats who we are, and now lets remember what explains such phenomenal numbers who gave us back our dignity as a people . Lets remember ourselves 25 years ago, when everything was done to ensure that this basis of our needs, hitlers germany, with those germans who were guilty when we were practically equalized with those who remained in germany after hitler s germany, who should and they really should repent for many, many, many decades and not rock the boat, as they say, but we, the victors of hitler, tried impose the same thing, many people believed in it, its the same. Who defeated International Terrorism in our caucasus, who stopped the seemingly inevitable and irreversible collapse of the country, when everyone was collected along the perimeter. Tomorrow is 10 years, 10 years of this amazing in words, many cried, i cried, that crimea was returning to its native harbor , to its native shores, to its place of permanent registration, and we, of course, all voted, and all this weekend i wanted to shout publicly, who returned our dignity, well, scream it was impossible, days of silence, we are all waiting with trepidation. In our hearts we are waiting for the rest of our russian lands to return to their place of permanent registration, our russian people who are waiting for us, our new and newest russian regions, of course, now its hard, very hard what is happening in belgorod, what is happening in our new regions in the old border territories, it is obvious why all this was arranged, it is obvious to me that they wanted to organize a new beslan. To capture some village and keep the whole country in suspense and in such horror, as terrorists like them did in 2004, this, thank god, did not succeed, for which we must say thanks to all the fighters, the special services, everyone who attacks repelled attacks continues to repulse, its hard, now the family has come to moscow to finish, i understand, the family is from avdeevka, and there a fouryearold boy, they spent 2 years in the basements and. When the mother asks why didnt you leave, how did you sit in the basements . She says well, my boy is 4 years old, he went to kindergarten, he would have been made a nazi, she preferred to sit with him in the basement, because dignity is the basis of our pyramid of needs, and lets congratulate our president on such a worthy victory. I give the floor to our colleagues in the news studio, thank you, this was a direct broadcast from the studio of the Evening Program with Vladimir Solovyov, lets stay in touch together we follow the latest events. So, the Election Commission center has updated the vote count data. At this moment we see that about 38 of the ballots have been processed. Vladimir putin has a total of 87. 38 of the votes. Nikolai kharitonov is still in second place, with just over 4 of the votes cast. In third place is Vladislav Davankov with 3. 91 . And he closes this four, Leonid Slutsky. More than 3 of the votes, but for now lets return to the kherson and zaporozhye regions, Vladimir Putin wins the president ial elections in the kherson region, where he received 88. 12 of the votes after processing of 100 of the protocols, in zaporozhye by this minute a little more than 90 of the protocols have been counted, 92. 95 of voters voted for Vladimir Putin. Our correspondents, ruslan bikbula, worked in these regions. Slutsky Leonid Eduardovich 4. 60 . Kharitonov Nikolay Mikhailovich 4. 88 . Such a high turnout is the answer of the residents of the kherson region to kiev, which tried to disrupt the elections, intimidated members of precinct Election Commissions, did not stop shelling the civilian population, and also attacked election officials. Areas, but the residents themselves told us that ukraines attempt to intimidate only brought people closer together. People are very positive, we just got out of the car, a woman walks with two bags, i say you are going to vote, she says yes, but yesterday there was an explosion, but im not afraid, im going to vote. Yes, there are arrivals, yes, bookmarks. There are, yes, there are illwishers, but what should we be afraid of . We have nothing to fear, we made our choice then, we are making our choice now, im not afraid, because, because we have the best army in the world, so she doesnt protect. I wish them great, great luck. People who have made their choice once go along with russia, it is impossible to intimidate them. Its clear that only fools are not afraid, but we choose to go to the store more than once, we choose the future for ourselves. The president of the residents of the kherson region was elected in two stages first , ahead of schedule from february 27 to march 3. This is primarily a concern for the safety of all participants in the electoral process. We tried to avoid crowds, because from some areas to front lines. Participation in the construction of ones own, ones region, ones street, but these elections concern every home, and the future, for oneself and for ones children. It was possible to make your choice together with the entire country on three main voting days, and International Experts and observers from Nine Countries were able to evaluate the organization of the elections. We found an overwhelming response from people, there were many people who voted from older, middle and younger generations. We respect peoples choices and would like to wish good luck to the best candidate who would not have won this election. All voting days, people at the polling stations told us that they had already made their main choice in the referendum in 2022. Ruslan bikbulatov, andrey potapov, evgenya korneeva, conduct the kherson region. And according to preliminary data, voter turnout in the elections for the russian president in the zaporozhye region was almost 90 . Leading. Current head of state Vladimir Putin. Uh, the numbers will still be clarified, but we can say with a 100 guarantee that the president ial elections russia in the zaporozhye region took place, and this is now a historical fact. Polling stations in melitopol and other large cities in the region opened at 8 am, and immediately there was such a remarkable moment queues of voters. People came to the still closed areas in advance to exercise their civil rights. Excellent turnout, everyone is coming, there was already, one might say, even a queue since the very morning, when we opened the polling station at 8 00, now they continue to come, the vote is excellent, how are people in a great mood, yesterday, yesterday they also voted at the polling station, they congratulated us on the holiday, we congratulated them on the holiday, for people its a holiday, they go and vote, ive wanted to elect our president since 2007, now its worked out, were glad that were already here, for us, for.

Well, i think it will reach a kilogram, well , thats a bit heavy. Embassy work, which was extended to 19 hours moscow time, but yerevan seems to be moving into roundtheclock election mode, with so many people wanting to vote that voting was extended to 22 hours; according to rough estimates, there are more than a thousand people in line. The armenian media emphasizes that Many Russians also came to yerevan from georgia, where there is no opportunity to vote. In baku, where more than one and a half thousand russians voted, the most touching moment was the expression of will helen gossanova, who lost the ability to walk. Due to a spinal injury of a russian volleyball player. Despite the protests of the threat from chisinau, teraspol voted openly and boldly. The queues in the transnistrian capital have become the embodiment of the independence of the republic. Beijing and tokyo also joined queues today, with thousands willing to vote. In new york, the russians blocked the medison avenue promenade in manhattan. There are no less russians on both sides of the warring israel and palestine. In tel aviv and haifa, despite the working day, treats and. Alone one of the most picturesque was the queue in the austrian saalzburg. The only polling station in belgrade could barely handle the number of people willing to cast their votes. There are many kilometerlong queues in other european capitals, brussels, london and berlin. Asya emelyanova talks about how the voting took place in italy. Rome, vyagaita 5. Everyone knows what is at this address. Embassy of the Russian Federation in italy. This. The building is more than a century old, but for the first time elections were organized and held not at the consulate, but here, in this historical place, the beginning counting of votes. A unique opportunity to see the famous white hall, which was built 100 years ago for special occasions and receptions, which means the security measures are also special, you will have to be patient diplomats warned those who had already been standing in line since 8 am, please pass your purse, the address is valid convenient, especially for. Cool, wonderful, because we somehow expected that there might not even be a lot of people here, we looked, everything is cultural, everything is good, wonderful, the weather is conducive to this for us, the weather is really conducive 20, how in the summer, for those who dont go to rome often, this is a real gift, the opportunity to combine a walk with voting, stopping by the embassy at least for a minute, feeling at home, doing something that happens only. Once every 6 years, comes true our desire, our desire , to be involved in the fate of russia, as well as in determining the path that our country will take in the coming years, this is especially relevant now when, as you know, the International Situation is characterized by a very high degree of tension and. Turbulence, when our country is subject to unprecedented, colossal, i would say, pressure from outside. From italy there is 100 help and assistance. Our embassy and consulate in genoa, palerma, milan are always under reliable guard, but this sunday both the military and police are closely monitoring order. The residents of russia and its new constituent entities made their choice completely calmly. For whom, for the only putin . Naturally for the conspiracy, we are people from donbass, this is the first time for us, like in first grade, very we are worried, we vote for our president , we wish him health, strength, success and a long summer, we believe in him, we love him and we are proud of russia. The Voting Results will be known by nightfall, from rome, they will go to moscow through diplomatic channels. Axis milyanov. Chagaev, news, italy, rome. 130 votes were cast by our compatriots in one of the most closed countries in the world, afghanistan. The only polling station at the embassy in kabul for its employee. The noise of the madman in kabul, the Central Square and of course the most important thing, the monument to all the internationalists who fulfilled their duty with honor. Our embassy here in kabul occupies a colossal area; this is the largest territory that belongs to a foreign state in afghanistan, no matter how many employees there are. This is secret information, but i know for sure that everyone voted. Polling station 8024. I take out a duplicate of the priceless cargo, a russian passport. A unique opportunity, historical for me, to vote at the embassy in afghanistan. Hello. The bulk of afghans with russian passports arrived early in the morning and they voted together with those embassy employees. With children and pets they came on bicycles, tuktuks, this is an Indian Motorcycle taxi, on motorcycles. Immediately after the opening of the site, queues formed in the corridor of the torque representation. The first to vote was the ambassador extraordinary and plenipotentiary of russia to india denis alpov, then other employees of the embassy and mission, as well as representatives of the Russian Company who flew here on a business trip. I came here this morning to vote for president , i vote for Vladimir Vladimirovich putin, i support him. It seems to me that this is not the time for change, i think we need to support our president first of all. There were quite a few of our compatriots who had been living in india for many years, mostly russian women who started families here and gave birth to children and stayed. A typical story by local standards mixed marriages, in which there are more russians. We remain russian, and we are part of our country, even if abroad. We will definitely participate in the elections, for russia, we continue to work, for ours. For those who live far from the indian capital, Consular Department employees conducted mobile voting in the states of utrapradesh and kirola; just the day before , russians who, for various reasons, found themselves far from their homeland, fulfilled their civic duty. The voting procedure is standard, you must have the original of your domestic or foreign passport with you, well , lets omit the completed ballot, on this day several hundred russians came to the building of the turkic mission who wished. The voting was calm, organized, and there was a turnout good, elections took place among russian citizens in india and were successful. Voting in newley is interesting in its own way, the polling station is located in the diplomatic district of the indian capital, literally across the road from the swedish embassy, ​​next to the finnish and polish missions, above which the flags of ukraine are raised, on the next street is the american embassy, ​​in general , provocations were expected, but everything passed. That the elections of the president of the Russian Federation in the lugansk peoples republic took place and were relatively safe, relatively calmly, all this was achieved thanks to the very coordinated, calibrated and professional actions of our military, who ensured security in the sky, who ensured security on the front line, also thanks to the professional actions of representatives of our Law Enforcement agencies and the federal service. By the way, in mariupol, as throughout the country, preliminary Voting Results are already being summed up. Let me remind you that in the donetsk peoples republic, polling stations were closed earlier than in other regions of the country in 15 hours, and accordingly, they started counting votes there too, here too, earlier, very soon preliminary data on the turnout of mariupol and figures on how many percent this or that candidate received should appear. The local Election Committee decided to close the polling stations earlier for security reasons; there are really very serious security measures here, with Police Officers on duty at each polling station. Russian guards, but in fact there were no violations, conflicts, or provocations, everything went quite calmly, as usual, well, the full picture of the day at the elections in mariupol is in our report right now. For residents of mariupol, this is perhaps the most important event in the last 2 years since the city was liberated. This is definitely a historical event for us, because we have always been for russia. It is very overwhelming with positive emotions, even probably. It works as usual, and this is a school named after the hero of russia roman kutuzov, who died during the battle for nikolaevka. The director recalls that the building was also in ruins. They made repairs here, restored everything, they also provided the educational process with everything necessary. To this day they havent left us, so thank you very much. Election officials had been preparing for the elections for several months, but today they were still noticeably worried. We have been waiting for this for a very long time, we have been fighting for this for 10 long years, finally it is. This is the first time in my life that i have seen such a city renewed, thank you very much. And in this section, builders from st. Petersburg vote. Northern capital sister city of mariupol, second year restores what was destroyed. Multidisciplinary medical center. Now we are on mira avenue, this is one of the central streets of mariupol, where fierce battles took place, then many buildings were damaged, but now, after 2 years, almost everything has been restored, and restoration work is carried out as carefully as possible so that the buildings retain their historical appearance. In the city center there are new pedestrian paths, singing fountains, and modern street lighting. In the chechen republic, the current president ial elections ended with a record turnout, even the day before, more than 90 of the total voters voted there, and today it became clear that the turnout at the elections in the region exceeded the 2018 figure; if 6 years ago it was 91. 5 , this time it is more than 96 . With us in direct communication from grozny, our own correspondent, artur mustaev, artur, hello, what are the features of the current voting in the chechen republic . Tatyana, greetings, 96. 46 of voters voted in chechnya as of 18 00. This is the latest data from the local Election Commission. Polling stations in chechnya the republics closed at exactly 20 00, now here, as throughout the country, votes are being counted. At the polling stations , of which there are 521 in the region, there was a real pandemonium of voters, many came to the elections with their whole family, for example, the head of chechnya, who. Also brought with him aimani kadyrovas mother, despite the record high turnout, already after the first two days , and let me remind you, this was more than 90 of the total number of voters, the elections in the chechen republic were held at a high level without any incidents, it is necessary to note the great work of campaigning that took place in the region before the elections, the authorities, clergy, cultural figures, scientists, athletes, students and youth called on the residents of the republic to come to the elections to fulfill their civic duty. At city polling stations, on sea vessels and even at high latitudes, residents of st. Petersburg voted in such different conditions. Now the counting of votes is in full swing, we hope to learn the latest results from salima zariev. Salema, hello, its our pleasure to convey. Over to you, tatyana, hello, we are broadcasting from the petrograd side from one of the polling stations, which is located here, like everyone else at 8 00 pm it. Finished its work, closed, now votes are being counted here, the procedure is strictly regulated, first they counted here three times unused ballots, canceled them, sealed them, and then began counting, in fact, the votes already cast. There is a lot of work to be done, most likely it will last until the morning after the threeday marathon for members the Election Commission is of course a real test, but they are definitely ready for this test, we know what we are doing on. Such a mission is very important the election of the president of the Russian Federation, we are proud that we are participating in such an important event for the country, therefore, we have the strength, in total, 1947 permanent polling stations and 47 temporary polling stations operated in st. Petersburg, in addition, voting was organized on 99 ships and six polar stations, these elections are in the zone of. Responsibility of st. Petersburg, since the ships assigned to the st. Petersburg seaport, and the polar explorers are employees of the st. Petersburg institute of the arctic and antarctic, according to the Election Committee and observers, the elections were held at a high level, the turnout was record breaking, it was about 70 , this figure is much higher than the results of the eighteenth year, and today st. Petersburg can be said got rid of this stigma of a city with a traditional low turnout, working families came to vote. Teams and even entire sports teams, for example, came in full force, came to vote hockey club ska. Hockey is a team sport, it requires teamwork, so today the whole team came and voted, this unites us, when we are united, we are invincible, and we believe that this is the civic duty of every citizen of the Russian Federation and it is important for everyone to vote. And cast your vote, in the leningrad region this year, these elections also had a record turnout, about 75 , there, in these elections, for the first time, a voting point was opened for russian citizens living abroad, he worked in ivangorod on the border with estonia, in mostly residents of neighboring narva came to vote, where by decision of the estonian authorities the russian consulate was closed and thereby deprived of people, it turns out. Voting rights, so the opening of border checkpoints allowed them to exercise this right, well , shortly before our live broadcast , exit polls for st. Petersburg came, according to them, 83 supported the current president , Vladimir Putin, 6 of st. Petersburg residents voted for slutsky, 5 for davankov and 4 for kharitonov, 2 of respondents answered that they spoiled ballot, well, very little time remains until we can compare these data with the election results, Election Night in st. Petersburg continues. Tatiana. Thank you, my colleague salima zarif is monitoring the vote count in st. Petersburg. We are waiting for the moscow, kremlinPutin Program ahead, but for now we pass the floor to our colleagues from the evening with Vladimir Solovyov program. Thank you, the poles had fun, they said that within three days there would be terrible repression. Mid poland from 15 to 17 march 24 in russia went like this. Parliaments can be set up by ours, russian, soviet, the current ones, but we can set up elections of the Supreme Council in the forty sixth year after the war, when there were no elections for 9 years, thats when it was a vote. The second moment that gave rise to the appearance is precisely everything that happened from the outside, this is what happened on the border with belgrade, this is what happened in paris, all the statements there about nato, the czech president , the balts, tusk, here they are made an appearance because when our russian citizen, who has the right to vote, heard these gentlemen, he said, no, i then. Well, 70 and the last elections were about 77 , almost 77 . From the point of view of confirming our legitimacy, authority , status as a national leader, these elections , for putin personally , did not decide anything so sacred, we knew that this is a national leader, he will get a majority, he will definitely win, it seems to me, in these elections there was a new, main moment when. They show, they themselves say listen, well, why is this happening . Now, it would seem , they should turn away from power, from putin, the people will definitely rally around him again, i am continuing margarita s thought that they do not understand us, and so the level of political consolidation as a result of this choice, these elections, will show the whole world, the whole world, that russian citizens support not only putin as such, but also i will repeat once putin, universally recognized in the country, a national leader, has no alternative, this shows enormous support for the choice that putin offered russia, the country, and here is another important observation putin now has shows a result of 87 . In fact , putins idea and course are greater than putins, because in the voices of davankov, slutsky and. The voices of those people who support putin, because between these candidates and putin there is no difference in assessing the strategic course of the country, both communists and the ldpr, and new people in the state duma are consolidated around this course, so in fact the result of putin, his course, if you add up the votes, it is close to 100 of those who came to vote, thats what these showed. Before the results of the elections of our enemies in the west, yes it finally became clear, and the elections here confirm this, that no attempts to destabilize the situation from the inside were successful, they completely failed, the calculations were for sanctions, the calculations were, so to speak, for a military situation, mobilization, so to speak, everything is possible there. , which means aspects, the west was waiting, the west was trying. To make sure that destabilization begins here inside russia , some kind of opposition, as it seemed to them that it exists, yes, or they just invented it for themselves, or maybe they didnt, its not matters, they expected that various, so to speak, forms of pressure on russia would stir up protests here, stir up destabilization here, like, yes, some kind of color revolution, all that stuff, it completely failed, and the elections showed this very clearly, yes, i think this is a very important conclusion, can they learn this for themselves, this is another question, this is the next point, although. They dont want to, but then they will have to live in a situation where russia has chosen a leader for itself, this leader Vladimir Putin, and he will continue to follow the same course as he is now, and they really. Wont be able to do anything about it, so russia will not disappear anywhere, yes, it is, so to speak, under the leadership of putin, yes, this entire international community, so to speak, will have to deal with this, i think that many of those who treat us with sympathy, and there are many of them, yes, actually breathed a sigh of relief, i dont think they doubted, but this confirmation is important for them, it is important for the chinese, it is important for many others, for indians, for a large number of countries that are with us cooperate, because i can say that i communicated with some foreigners who seemed to express doubts , suddenly there is something there somehow, there are also such and such figures, and such, if it was there, that was obviously this is not so, but they were still worried, yes, nevertheless, yes , so now they have calmed down, by the way, about, about our attitude towards our country, im not very, so to speak, not very, so to speak, im not very sure that, again , these westerners, ours, understand all this, but you know, how among young people there are popular opposition. Moods on their own, you just have to be against and so on, so on, so on, i dont know whether the west understands or not, but for this reason russia is becoming more and more more popular in the world, russia is the only country that has challenged the owner, this owner is sick of everyone , he really stopped being attractive, interesting, good, kind, i dont know, he probably never was like that, but he really tortured everyone with his threats, punishments, that is, instructions that one must live that is, eat and sleep the way he wants, yes, he tortured everyone, in fact, russia today is the country that has openly challenged him, it will be popular, at least already in for this reason, yes, whether the west understands it or not, but as for the choice of people , i can say this, ill go a little from the other side, but the people told putin that he does not have the right to leave, by the way, im not sure that putin is generally happy that he has to say so for so long to remain as president , maybe there were even some other plans, some other projects for the development of the country, as if yes, im even. Im sure for sure that it was so, but now its impossible, its impossible , yes, the people , it seems to me, are quite clearly, so to speak, expressing their own , including their message to putin, so to speak, mr. Putin, you have no right to leave, you are our leader, we trust you, yes, by the way, i think , what is also important and what has already been said here, yes, that is one of the reasons why why is this trust so high, finally , the internal political course. The political one began to approach what can be called, you know, such a deepseated opinion of the people about how it should be, because for a very long time, i must say, we otherwise they flirted with the west, flirted with its supporters here in russia, talked about what, well, you know, on the one hand , this is how it is, on the other hand, what can i say, listen, i can tell you that i am on my own from personal experience, yes, i can say, more not so long ago, any talk about russians and the russian world caused. Few places in the world exist in this form , you remember, in the last message the president said, yes, that the main criterion for evaluating National Projects is the opinion of the people, yes, that is, its not billions, not tons and not kilometers, first of all we must clearly understand that as a result of the built facilities, roads, and so on and so forth, peoples lives have really become better, and this is very important, now now, as if many people quoted this then, but in fact many somehow didnt remember that its already been 10 years. And one of the main criteria for assessing the effectiveness of governors is their attitude towards them by citizens, their attitude towards what they do, which is why, of course, this is a very important criterion, a very important approach to how the russian state is structured, and of course, now there is a special factor military operation, yes, there is a factor of external pressure, of course, in this sense , patriotic motivation, it is dominant. The results of other election participants, representatives of our parliamentary opposition, but we understand perfectly well that people of various political views in the Current Situation voted for Vladimir Putin, and in my opinion, this is again extremely important, since with their political activity and their Political Choice they made our country stronger, its political system stronger , they made it more competitive. And now the actual responsibility is on the side, so to speak, of the power system, as they said, the goals are clear, tasks are defined for the work of comrades, new National Projects, new may decrees, yes, firstly, i want to continue with my colleagues, indeed, konstantin said that now the modern russian government is humancentric, and in many ways it is sociologists who help it be more effective, indeed, now we measure the national by the national. Russia once a week, and for us the results that the president is now showing are absolutely expected, they completely coincide with our forecasts, the exipol that we did in the last 3 days shows that the president takes 87 , kharitonov is in second place 4. 6, in third davankov 4. 2, in fourth slutsky 3 . And in principle, this situation really shows what our colleagues were talking about, full support for the course, which is now personified by one. A person, a national leader, Vladimir Putin, is supported by different groups of the population, absolutely different strata of the population support and even with different political views, by and large the elections were of a referendum nature, about trust in the president of the Russian Federation, and as practice shows, the population today says definitely yes and clearly trusts him to continue the policy that he is currently pursuing, that is, we are talking about the fact that. Let me remind you once again, he now works in the headquarters of Vladimir Putin, a colossal gap from his closest possible rivals who took part in the race, and of course , it is worth saying that this is, without. Conditionally, a colossal trust of society, the unity of society and the highest degree of solidarity with the current president of russia, despite western sanctions, in the conditions of a special military operation, society demonstrated, well, now you can come across assessments with which it is more difficult to disagree with the historical result, historical in terms of numbers, because lets remember, in the eighteenth year , Vladimir Putins result in the elections was approximately 77 , now. Even before completion, we can say that the 10 plus that is added to that result is a colossal figure, and i will note once again the degree of trust, the degree of confidence in the correctness of the current course, the course that Vladimir Putin is pursuing. Apparently, in we will have statements at our headquarters soon, at least the tv cameramen in the next room have already been posted. Lets not get ahead of ourselves, but we can assume that it is obvious. We are talking about summing up the results of this Election Campaign, a campaign that took place in difficult conditions, for the first time new regions of russia took part in it, this is also worth mentioning separately, but i will emphasize once again that it was very rich in many points, like will develop, how the country will live, the president formulated in a message to the federal assembly, it was for these new projects, new Construction Projects for the development of the country that the residents of russia voted, who today showed a tremendous amount of trust in Vladimir Putin and demonstrated. The highest degree of solidarity with the head of state. Tatiana. Alexey, thank you. Alexey petrov works at Vladimir Putins election headquarters. And now we are transported again to the communist headquarters. According to the latest data from nikolai. And as Gennady Zyuganov and Nikolai Kharitonov, who gave a press conference, said literally an hour ago in this small building of the headquarters of the communist party, people placed great trust in Vladimir Putin, of course he is now the leader in the country, it is he who leads the special military operation as the supreme commanderinchief, lets listen directly to what the leaders of the communist party of the Russian Federation, Nikolai Kharitonov and Gennady Zyuganov said. The candidate from the new people, who are taking part in the president ial election for the first time, is now confidently holding a preliminary third place, but is claiming second place. Our correspondent ainur valiakhmetov gets in direct contact with the studio. Ainur, how intensely davankovs supporters are now watching the vote count. Tatyana, good evening again, well, the first results, as you rightly noted, are already known, i must say, for davankovs team they are more than successful, at least thats what they. Noted themselves, as soon as the polling stations closed, here in headquarters held a small press conference for journalists, just like the main candidate from the new party people, Vladislav Davankov s mood was quite positive, they were present together with the faction leader alexei michaev, lets listen, without a doubt, of course, the winner is Vladimir Vladimirovich putin, but what is important for us is that we were able to convey our program, the partys program, new people. It is important that tens of thousands of people joined us, sincerely and truly campaigned, and i believe that this is our first, first attempt, the first president ial election, lets continue, lets continue our work, everyone parliamentary parties that considered it necessary to participate in the elections all participated and indeed this is in many ways a dialogue of the country about its future. Everyone here unanimously says that the elections were held without violations, the work that Vladislav Dvankov began will definitely continue, let me remind you that the candidate has over 70 Regional Headquarters, they all continue to remain via video link, such analytical work is already underway, work in the main election headquarters did not stop at the moment when the polling stations were opened, in fact, this headquarters has turned into such a Situation Center where. To watch and track the progress of the voting, and work here will continue all night, i must say that now there are not so many supporters, they have all gone to their jobs, and of course, everyone waiting for the main results. Tatyana returns the floor to the studio. Thank you, ainur valiakhmetov, works at the headquarters of the candidate from the new people party, vladislav dovonkov, and of course, the main intrigue of this election is who will take second place. At the headquarters of the liberal democrats. Now also carefully they are watching the vote count, Leonid Slutsky is still in fourth place, dmitry kaistra is again in direct contact with the studio from the ldpr headquarters. Dmitry, is there any disappointment in the party from such results .
