“Discussing the findings, the Insitute for the Study of War (ISW) said on Friday the Kremlin was ‘likely concerned’ about how changing attitudes towards the war could affect the 2024 Russian presidential election.”
Like, how they’ll have to work marginally harder to rig it?
Putin is most concerned with the perception of his power. Having a significant percentage of the Russian people angry with him over the war in Ukraine increases the chance of disruptions that will weaken his apparent legitimacy
They will need to win with 130% of the votes instead of 120%, the opposition will have the other 15% of course
I thought they had this thing where elections weren’t necessary as they already knew the results.
Probably not, it’s not like they’re actively convincing people they need to vote a particular way.
Oh no, the war is now affecting me directly.
