Boris #Nadezhdin was disqualified from #russia's presidential election because his signature campaign supported by 100,000 people is “fake”. And Yekaterina #Duntsova, another anti-war candidate, had been disqualified prior to that due to incorrect paperwork, most notably spelling mistakes.
Now, there are only pro-war “candidates” left. Yet, people won't cease to find further and further reasons why all of that is totally democratic and a sign of a liberal society. 🤡

#Russia bans anti-war candidate from challenging #Putin
23rd December 2023
By Ece GoksedefBBC News"A former TV journalist who announced she would challenge President Putin in Russia's spring election has been barred from standing.
"Independent politician #YekaterinaDuntsova wanted to run on a platform to end the war with #Ukraine.
"But the electoral commission voted unanimously to reject her candidacy three days after her application, citing 100 'mistakes' on her form.
"Ms Duntsova said she would appeal the decision at the Supreme Court.
"The presidential election, which will be held in March 2024, is Russia's first since President Putin launched his full-scale invasion of Ukraine nearly two years ago.
"The immediate slap-down of a Putin critic will be seen as evidence by some that no dissent will be tolerated in the campaign.
"The former TV journalist had declared she would run for the presidency in November. At the time, she told the Reuters news agency: 'Any sane person taking this step would be afraid - but fear must not win.'
"Russia's constitution was amended in 2020, increasing the presidential term from four to six years and giving Mr Putin a clean slate to run again by cancelling out his previous terms.
"Moscow has sidelined opposition figures for years, and President Putin is expected to win in March; the Kremlin claims he enjoys genuine support among Russians.
"Ms #Duntsova had been vocal on her plans to run a campaign on ending the war in Ukraine and freeing #PoliticalPrisoners.
"She was quick to respond after the commission's decision. 'We will appeal to the Supreme Court, since this decision is not based on the law,' a message on her Telegram channel said.
"The commission said 29 people have so far filed to run for the presidency. But after today's decision, Mr Putin remains the only candidate to be able to register as a candidate."

🇷🇺 Yekaterina #Duntsova believes her age, gender and lack of experience in #Kremlin #politics might be some of her greatest assets. But she faces a long, challenging road to the ballot.
Yet as an independent candidate with a pro-peace agenda, #Duntsova is likely to face an array of challenges on the path to securing her place in the presidential race.
📝 Is she for real, or a #Putin stooge? I hope the latter, for her sake.
