Russia is holding three days of voting and there's no expectation that United Russia, the party devoted to President Vladimir Putin, will lose its dominance in the State Duma. The main question is whether the party will retain its two-thirds majority that allows it to amend the constitution. Another question is whether the Smart Voting strategy devised by Navalny will prove viable against United Russia. (AP Photo/Valentin Egorshin, File)$

Con lo slogan “Vybiraem vmeste!” (Scegliamo insieme!) gli elettori russi sono chiamati alle urne per eleggere 450 deputati della Duma – la camera bassa del parlamento russo -, nove governatori delle repubbliche e 39 parlamenti regionali.
Dalla sua pagina di Instagram Navalnyj ha esortato gli elettori a scaricare l’applicazione che segnala in ogni collegio il candidato che ha più possibilità di sconfiggere Russia unita.
Alla chiusura dei seggi capiremo se la strategia di Navalnyj ha funzionato e il partito presidenziale non sarà riuscito a ottenere la maggioranza assoluta dei seggi.
