Peskov: cases of repeated voting under the Constitution will not affect legitimacy

The Kremlin will not intervene in the situation with a repeat vote on the Constitution, said presidential spokesman Dmitry Peskov. According to him, this will not affect the legitimacy of the vote. If necessary, the Central Election Commission (CEC) will eliminate the shortcomings of the system.

“I do not know what goals these activists pursue (voted twice .— “B”) If the goals are to improve the electoral system, then this is probably not bad. And whether it is worth applying the punishment prescribed by law or not, this is not the decision of the Kremlin, and we would not want to intervene in it, ”Mr. Peskov told reporters when asked whether people who voted again would be punished.

According to him, even if there are reports of some problems, they “can in no way influence the general background of legitimacy.” “I have no doubt that the Central Election Commission will take measures to clarify this situation, where necessary: ​​making adjustments and improving working methods,” said Dmitry Peskov.

Recall that the main voting day is July 1, it will be a day off. However, in fact, you can vote for seven days, from June 25 to July 1.
