A resident of Yekaterinburg, Sverdlovsk Region, while looking for additional income, accidentally ended up at a “factory” for forging signatures of voters in subscription lists. How explained Znak.com Vladimir (name changed at his request), he was looking for a part-time job for the weekend and saw a message in the chat, which he entered when he was distributing newspapers to the Rodina party. According to the young man, he was promised work with documents and offered 1,500 rubles for six hours. He was offered to come to the conference room of the hotel on Moskovskaya Street, 131. There he and other people were closed for the duration of the shift.
“The phones were taken from everyone and put in a box under the pretext“ for your own safety. ” Then everyone was assured that you would train for 6 hours to collect signatures on the streets. Naturally, all this was a lie, ”said Vladimir.
He and other workers were given “somehow taken photographs” of books with voter lists from some area from Kirovsk, Leningrad Region. Accordingly, it was required to forge signatures to the Legislative Assembly of the Leningrad Region for the candidate Zhuravlev Alexei Alexandrovich, whose name was the first on the list, says Vladimir.
According to him, there were about 50 people in the room. Each of them had a planchette with a sheet for collecting signatures and their own addresses of “voters”. “When you filled out the line (full name, year of birth, place of registration, date of signature collection and the signature itself), then you passed your tablet with a“ snake ”. Consequently, one person could not write twice on one sheet, ”the young man added.
During the shift, the workers “collected” 3,600 signatures.
Alexey Zhuravlev is a current State Duma deputy, the only representative of the Rodina party in parliament. In the 2021 elections, he topped the party’s federal list, as well as some regional lists, such as the list of St. Petersburg.
A year ago, Alexey Zhuravlev, in the 60 minutes program on the Russia 1 TV channel, spoke about a brothel for zoophiles created in Denmark. The parliamentarian argued that a turtle could be raped there. His comment was made during the discussion of the children’s TV show Ultra Strips Down on one of the Danish channels. In the next episode of the show, adults undressed in front of small spectators to tell them about the structure of the human body.
And at the beginning of 2020, Deputy Zhuravlev stated in an interview with the radio station “Moscow speaking” that one of the reasons for the abnormally warm weather in the country may be the use of climate weapons by the United States.
The head of the Sverdlovsk branch of the Rodina party, Valery Khvostov, told Znak.com that the regional branch has nothing to do with the collection of signatures in the Leningrad region and with Alexei Zhuravlev. Assistant to the deputy of the State Duma Zhuravleva suggested that it was a question of some kind of “provocation.”
