What election? Do you mean the one where the opposition's leader was murdered?
There were three opposition parties, actually. And I assume you're talking about the blood clot that nazi got in prison, right? Any actual evidence pointing to that being unnatural, or are we doing the standard blueanon "putin is behind this somehow" line of conspiratorial thinking?
Surely you're familiar with controlled opposition, people who run merely to provide the illusion of a real election while any real contenders are kept dead, silenced, locked up, off the ballot, or otherwise suppressed?
You mean the American electoral farce, right?
While i wait for your evidence of murder, I'm curious: What do you think the common people of a country with a political system compromised by controlled opposition should do?
Navalny never had more than like 2% support in Russia, Calling him the opposition leader shows that you're utterly clueless on the subject of Russian politics. The actual opposition in Russia is KPRF as opposed to a fucking west backed fascist which is what Navalny was.
