Not "proof," so far as I know. It is widly alleged however.

Now, there is massive evidence of election fraud in the regions during the
2000 elections, probably mainly because of regional governments trying to
get in good with the Kremlin.

-I?ve read that the number of people able to vote increased by 1,3 million
-from the parlamentary elections in 1999 to the presidential elections
-in 2000. Quite surprising for a country whose population is decreasing....
-I think Putin probably wouldn?t have won in the first turn if there was not
-fraud.
-Btw: Did the Russian population stopped to shrink??
