Maladechna: where are the electoral teams of the majority of presidential candidates?
Little time remains till
the beginning of voting, but residents of Maladechna can see only the agitation
production of Ryhor Kastusiou, Uladzimir Niakliayeu and Andrei Sannikau. It’s
quite strange, as signatures in support of presidential candidates were
collected in Maladechna by representatives of seven electoral teams besides Lukashenka’s.
According to our observations, agitation materials of Ryhor Kastusiou often
disappear from the electoral notice boards. For instance, it regularly happens
in the Chyhunachny supermarket. There
are suspicions that this is done on the agreement or even with the participation
of its administration, whose head banned placing there any leaflets of
opposition candidates during the previous elections.
Leaflets of candidate Niakliayeu are often posted in improper places. It’s
unclear whether it’s done by his adherents or provocateurs.
Thus, there’s still much free space on the electoral notice boards, as if those
who made them quite small foresaw the scope of agitation in Maladechna.
