- Polls have closed in Russia after the third and final day of a tightly-controlled presidential election. And the first few votes have already been counted.
Early results show that Vladimir Putin has won nearly 88% of the votes. That is according to Russia's election commission.
Putin has led Russia since 1999 and when his win is confirmed, it will extend his presidency by an additional six years.
But votes from three quarters of the polling stations have not been counted yet.
DW's Riga bureau and reporter Sergei Satanovskii is following developments for us. DW relocated to Riga after being forced to shut down operations in Russia.

How kind of Putin to only have 88%, I guess 90% would be too unbelievable. 😂😂😂😂😂
Hold on. It was 87.85%. Just to make it more believable.
Actually when I think of Putin, 88 is exactly the number that comes first to my mind, so... I guess it's consistent.
And each opponent conveniently has around 3%-4% to make them still look horribly unpopular in comparison lol
He has been defeating g the evil nato for Yeats and even stopped their "invasian" into Russia, of course everyone would vote for him winning. 🤷
should go for broke and do %100 percent.
Putin also came 2nd, 3rd, and 4th
Ha!
Lmao 😂
soooo funny ... you made my day 🤣🤣🤣
😂😂😂😂😂😂
I fully congratulate Mr President Putin ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️🇷🇺🇷🇺🇷🇺🇷🇺🇷🇺♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️🇷🇺🇷🇺🇷🇺🇷🇺🇷🇺🇷🇺💪💪💪💪💪💪💪 when will the people of Ukraine truly get this opportunity to elect the real leaders not the one Washington and the West will select for them 😂😂😂
Putin: _"I want it to look realistic, so put 80% instead of that 150% i originally intended"_
No, he made it even more real with 87.9% instead of a nice and round number
They did once showed a 146% votes. And of course immediately put blame on the west
@@1stPrinciples455 AHAHAHAHAHAHHA NOT EVEN GOD WOULD HAVE 88%
Still better than Zelensky suspending elections.
Ok troll 😂😂
Shocking! I thought for sure one of his dead, in prison, or exiled opponents would win.
don't believe everything you read in western media..... history is a script you gurgled up.
lol
Most Russians don’t know who Navalny is. He lost bad in an mayoral election in Moscow. Not like he was ever a real threat to Putin being president.
U should do ur own research instead of listening to everything ur tv tells u.
There's not enough sarcasm in the world to respond to this.
Oh my God!! I’m SOOOOO SHOCKED!!!!
Did anyone else see the video of armed Russian soldiers systematically entering polling booth curtains and observing people's voting choices. No pressure from the crazy guy standing 10 inches away with a machine gun 🥺

And, very quickly, the population dropped by 12%.
They are now getting a some expense paid trip to Ukraine!
Actually with 4 new regions Russia has record high population
LOL... yup.
Pun intended?
no president can manuvre the economy to be better than the west in a moment of sanctions
Only 88%? Damn, he has fallen bellow the expected 125%. He really seems in trouble!
Considering that Putin was expecting to have 125% of the votes due to him rigging the election, those would be bad results for him.
@@user-nc1vd9xl4r Wonder how many votes Navalny would have received. Putin was afraid to find out.

Would You Want To Die For Talking???
I wonder how the West will bray at these results. Please don`t forget that Russia is a sovereign country, not a serf of the West.
Just finally tell your people the truth and stop calling Russia a democracy. Russia will have more money to wage war against Europe if they drop these for show elections
I understand that it's embarrassing for you.
Tell that to its own puppet with Belarus.
A sovereign country, yes; a democracy, no

He actually won 139%.
😂🎉
That's too low still. It should be INFINITE.
88 is not by accident, I'd say
actually every poll from every independent western consultan gives Putin a popular support above 80%

@@santaclause3487 what does that have to do with him jailing people for having a piece of paper, controlling the media, jailing opposition.
The Internet is restricted in Russia. CZcams is an exception.
It blocks websites that are critical of the government.
Russia has kicked out most foreign journalism. It's kicked out human rights orgs. It's shut down Russian homegrown orgs.
NK is the bottom. But Russia is very restricted. And it's heading downward, as it's been for decades now.
Look at where Russia stands on freedoms at any level and it's bad.
I think the other 12 percent people that they didn’t vote for Putin are in jail. Now we should say God bless their souls.
16 million votes... in a country with 112 million people eligible to vote... that is actually stunnigly low
Well spotted, but sadly, that was only the number for a single oblast, probably Moscow. Moscow has since a restructuring in 2011 approx 20 Million inhabitants, so the "official" vote total should be close to 100%. Which is ofc about as credible as Putin's "victory"....
@@stefanb6539 Well you can't threaten to everyone in 3 days. Most of soldiers are in Ukraine anyway. They lack manpower. Just look what happened last Winter with heating all over the Russia. Forgotten today. China is salivating right now.

How generous of Putin to share 12% 🤣
Wow! What a nail biting photo finish! I've been on the edge of my seat for three days now.
Need to do research he was president then became prime minister and then ran as president again and got it.
What a close race that was. But he turned it around last minute.
It was a nail biter .
I saw video of armed Russian soldiers going into the voting booth to help citizens vote. That's so thoughtful! Who wants to be alone in a booth?
Truly a well fought campaign, his political opponents are speechless.
@@remixsparten98 Litterly
Why did Putin chose to win by 88% and not 120% ?
Have to make it look sort of real ?
Simple. He is leaving room for improvement in 2030, 2036, 2042, 2048 and 2054.
He chose 87% actually. You can easly tell it's rigged as all his election results since 2000 have ended with a 7. Must be his lucky number.
That is the only reason this is done at all. To provide a Vineet of legitimacy.
The result is outrageous, but Russians don't know what reasonable election results look like.
@@soket8391 Putin invests absolutely nothing in the development of Russia. 40% of the budget now goes to the military. The rest is stuff the state can't afford not to fund, like pensions. Everything else is left to rot.
This is nothing new. Go outside the major cities and plenty of people don't even have flushable toilettes. It's a 3rd world country, despite pumping billions out of the ground annually.
Why the high vote? Watch the countless videos of election officials ballot stuffing, or even the removable ink dispensed by pens in the voting booths.
@@soket8391he gave such development in this 2 years, what a man!
Fun fact, the real opposition that really had to win died in colony right before election
Joker
a lesson for the West on how a truly democratic election takes place.
secret ballot, paper ballot, in person voting, no mail in ballots, international observers, diverse political views represented in the candidates.
if only Rochdale or Chicago could offer the same high standards.
Soviet election. All the competition fell out windows.
Like Epstein? JFK was simply killed, sooo democratic
That would be Gaza.

@@masterlightjames950 What are you talking about? Putin killed one of his election rivals. IT was big news
He once scored 108 out 100.

bonus points for being so charming.
Unlike Ukraine, Russia is having elections.
88% 😂 if you got a 100 people in a room and asked them whether water was wet or not, you wouldn't get an 88% consensus
I'm surprised it wasn't 99.9 percent 😅
I'm surprised it was not 120% .
That would be too suspicious.
No, Putin just wanted to give the impression that it was a fair election. Otherwise, it would have been 100% (and no more - because by definition, it's not a figure of comparison or increase, but a fixed amount.
Actually, there were fair elections. Any idea why not?
Even Putin knows that by definition, he could only win 100% of the votes - unlike a figure of comparison or increase.@@Crashed131963
Jeez! 12% of the population will accidentally fall out of a window.
I stil wonder why in Russia so many people just fall out the window all on their own. Its like youre waiting for a bus and you just see people flying out their windows. 🤔
It's fascinating to observe how westerners don't believe people could actually be in favor of Putin 🙂

The 12% are N Korean who would never abandon their Dear Leader.
Is this even an election?
Yes, of course. And I expected 80 percent. Because all normal Russians I know voted for Putin. I also know many Russians who are against Putin, but these are mostly artists and musicians who are very often left-wing in all countries, not just in Russia. But they do not count proportionally compared to the total population. Another point is that the other candidates were rather weak. The current LDPR candidate cannot hold a candle to his predecessor Zhirinovsky who died in 2022 and the communist candidate is no Syuganov either.
