This is the angle of the U.S. media. What do most Russians think?

Tell me Dan, Why do you think it's a joke? I have an opinion on it. Would you like to hear it?

I think that was kind of what the article said. It was not a fair election. It sounded like people were paid, or coerced into voting

It is more like they totally corrupted the process. Did not count anything. It was counted way time before.

Of course not. I'm against war. In all forms. Man is a social animal. We live to be together with each other. I was in the Army. But it was only just a job. Nothing more, nothing less. Although I love to ski. I don't want a nuclear winter. I think we're getting off track here a little bit. I just wanted an opinion on the elections in Russia. I'm not political. You should be able to tell that from my posts. I don't talk about $hit that concerns immigration,emancipation. I mostly keep my chat in meaningless drival. I just wanted to see what you people thought about Putin

What? Nothing to say now Dan? Maybe you should put your wife on. She would be a good candidate to speak for you

Was the election fair? No. Is any election fair? No. Was it more fair than the last 2 elections in US when supreme court "elected" a president that lost popular vote and the ceo of the company that makes voting machines donates to republicans and claims that he will get them a victory in Florida which he did? Absolutely.

brad62: That about last Russian Election: результаты их сейчас известны.Кремлевская партия Единая Россия получает в новом российском парламенте 315 мест,т.е. Конституционное Большинство!? Иными словами,теперь эта партия совершенно не нуждается в голосах других парламентских партий для принятия любых законов,в том числе и некоторых законов,касающихся конституции.Говоря еще проще и понятнее,теперь Государственная Дума России почти как две капли воды похожа на Верховный Совет СССР времен господства КПСС,или,уж во всяком случае,походит на парламенты ГДР,Болгарии,Польши времен КПСС и Варшавского Блока,когда в парламентах этих стран,хотя и присутствовали некоторые представители некоммунистических партий этих стран,но они не играли практически никакой роли.Сегодня,по итогам прошедших выборов,можно констатировать: в стране вновь,спустя 20 лет после перестройки,устанавливается безраздельное господство одной партии!

Ну во первых оно не устанавливается а продлевается, а во вторых, все четыре партии вошедшие в Думу имеют более-менее схожие платформы, даже Большевики согласны с Единороссами по любым вопросам внешней политики. Так что я не вижу что собственно изменилось, ны выкинули Рыжкова сотоварищи, а разве он мог что-то изменить раньше?

Sorry, Brad I was busy. My wife would have nothing to say about it.
Russian elections are fake. Even Venesuella voted better.
May be our elections are not perfect, but even EU is going to adopt our system.

I wasn't sticking up for the election. I just wanted to know what the Russian populous thought of it.
