In a shocker, Putin wins with 73% of the vote.

The shock is that it wasn't 100%. I guess that 27% of Russian voters are in hiding some where.

1. If they admit to 27%, think what the real number is.

[BeyondGeography]

7. +1

Navalny couldn’t run and:

Video recordings from polling stations showed irregularities in a number of towns and cities across Russia. Several videos showed election officials stuffing boxes with ballot papers.

8. Word is... 27% of Russias population has come down

With serious ailments. Could be poisoning?

[ProudLib72]

2. That just means that 36.5% of the population voted twice as hard

Did you not see the vid that was posted earlier of the woman stuffing the ballot box?

3. Wow! Who's the dead guy who ran against him?

4. I think he really is pretty popular in Russia.

People feel like he is making Russia a world power again. The Russian people have really been down for a long time.

We have people who ignore that Trump is a con man with no morals or ethics. So far he doesn't seem to have had anyone killed but he certainly completely destroys people and loves it.

They ignore that Putin is an assassin with no morals ir ethics.

They are cut from the same cloth.

5. 73% is a nice number to make it look like the vast majority supports you but it is not TOTALLY

rigged.

Surely Putin dictated the exact % they would report.

6. Well seeing as how he infiltrated and turned an entire US political party and installed his stooge

in the White House, I guess I'm not surprised.

Putin kicked the USA to the sidelines on the world stage and is our virtual ruler without firing a shot so...yeah.

9. It would have been 47% without the included votes of U.S. Republicans...........

OK, without looking it up, someone name me ONE of the Russian presidential candidates running against him, and on what party.

[UTUSN]

10. SHITLER is just *itching* to join his pals for life PUTEEN and the dude in China

[WhiskeyGrinder]

11. Higher than the 2012 election, around 63 percent.

More than 90 in Crimea and Checnhnya. They're shameless.
