Twofold Difference in Observers’ and Commission’s Figures of Voters Turnout

29

Rigging of voters’ turnout is now in full swing.

In the grammar school №29 in Melnikaite Street in Minsk the 15th and 16th polling stations are situated. Artiom Tsepliakou, a representative of the United Civil Party, is an observer over the early voting at the both polling stations, which are situated in one and the same room. As said by the observer, his count of voters’ turnout and the official figures of the commission started to differ from the first day, but on the second and the third days there was a twofold difference, Radio Svaboda reports.

“Look: if on the first day of voting 53 persons cast their votes at the 15th polling station, the commission gave the figure of 65. The difference is just 12 persons, though it makes about 20%. But yesterday there was twofold difference: my amount – 56, their number – 118. Today the pace of distortions became a little lower, but still it was higher than in the beginning. My information – 80, the commission insists on 116. It is almost the same at the 16th polling station. Today I saw 61 persons voting, while the commission gives information about 100 persons. I was staying at the polling station all the time, I probably left for 5 minutes once, and it is not clear where such figures are from. More exactly, it is clear: they are preparing figures for falsifying a turnout at the early voting necessary for them,” the observer said.

Journalists asked the chairperson of the commission at the 15th polling station, Volha Filimonava, to comment on the difference in figures:

“1932 voters are registered at my precinct in total. The voting is going on normally. You can learn the figures in the protocol, it is hanging on the wall. I do not know why the observer has different figures, I do not know in what way he is observing. In our work everything is clear and accurate,” she said.
