Election day, first of the spring holidays...
... or so the posters in subway trains said.
Did not go to vote. Most of people I know either didn't go or spoiled their bulletins (or took their bulletins home). Nevertheless, they say on TV that two hours before the end of the voting more than 50% of people in Moscow and Saint-Petersburg voted. Riiiiight. That reminds me of the population census a couple of years ago where no people I know here were counted... We do not exist.
On TV they showed Putin and Medvedev walking through the Red Square and addressing people before some kind of festive show. Medvedev's even shorter than Putin. ... My mother switched the TV to some kind of pop music stupidity. And then went to watch David Souchet as Poirot on DVD. A sound plan, if you ask me.
