MOSCOW, June 28.
/TASS/. More than 30 million people took part in the vote on the amendments to
Russia’s Constitution in the past three days across the country and the turnout
reached 28.46%, Central Election Commission Chairperson Ella Pamfilova said on
Sunday.
"According to
the latest data, over the past three days of holding the vote in Russia,
including online voting, 30,917,512 citizens voted, and the turnout was
28.46%," Pamfilova told the CEC’s information center.
Nationwide voting on
constitutional amendments started in Russia on June 25. The official voting day
under the presidential decree is July 1 but due to the coronavirus situation
the voting period was extended for a week. Vote counting will begin in regions
after 20:00 local time on July 1, when polling stations close. Along with the
extended voting period (from June 25 to July 1), people can cast their votes
outside polling stations at specially organized voting areas, including
outdoors, or use contactless voting at home. Additionally, residents of Moscow
and the Nizhny Novgorod Region can vote online.
