Vladimir Putin will once again serve in the Kremlin as President of Russia, raking in an estimated 62% of the vote one day ago. The closest competitor in the race was communist Gennady Zyuganov, bringing home around 17% of the votes.
Mr. Putin will enter his 3rd term (6 year term) . He is returning after a 4 year gap where he served as prime minister under Dmitry Medvedev: who will now become Prime Minister.
However all is not well in the Russian Federation as opposition leaders have said that the result was marred by ballot-rigging and bribery.
The U.K. Daily Mail is reporting that Mikhail Kasyanov, Mr Putin’s former prime minister and now an opposition activist, said: ‘These elections are not free, that’s why we will have protests tomorrow. We will not recognise the president as legitimate.’
