I don't trust the validity of an election when someone has ~70% of the vote. I have nothing against Medvedev but honestly why bother...at least his sketch factor is significantly lower than Putin's.

To his defense, Trump didn't even really look like a bum.

We all know who will still be running the country though once Medvedev elects Putin as Prime Minister.

Putin is obviously one very smart man.
He knows he's the hero of many Russians, the saviour of thier economy, etc...by placing a young, attractive, dynamic protege of his as his successor he guarantees his continued influence. I would prefer (not that it affects me at all) to see him appointed to a Regency as opposed to the Prime Minister's office, but either way he will still be guiding policy.
Check fucking mate.
Nice.

Many of the richer ones definitely don't. The poorer usually don't know much about any other choice, as they are manipulated by the state-owned media.
