Communists say Duma vote was rigged Yabloko and the Union of Rightist Forces did clear the 5 per cent barrier required for representation in the State Duma, the Communist Party said after the Central Election Commission released the official results of Sunday’s vote. The Communist Party’s observers, who monitored the vote and carried out a parallel count of votes, accused the authorities of rigging the vote in favour of pro-Kremlin United Russia.
