We continue our fight to register a party that can truly win elections.

Work is now underway in 60 regions. The numbers were unprecedented before, but they have grown even further: around 195 regional application packages have been submitted in total, with about 150 refusals (including suspensions), an average of 3 refusals per regional branch.

We are registered in 18 regions — we received the registration documents for Udmurtia yesterday.

They have promised to issue the registration documents for Stavropol and Primorye today or on Monday.

In 10 more regions, positive registration decisions have been made; the registrars informed us of this verbally. It will take from one to two weeks before we receive the documents (first, the documents are sent to the tax authorities for entry into the Unified State Register of Legal Entities (EGRUL) — 5 business days; then they are returned to the Ministry of Justice, and 3 business days later the certificates are prepared). In such cases, the regional justice ministries sometimes change their minds (this has happened to us 3 times during the registration process). So, as of today, if all of these verbal positive decisions are carried through and we receive the registration documents for them, we will have 30 registered branches. Judging by the lawless and completely illegal position that the local justice ministries had taken earlier, there is a 90% chance of refusals in the following places: Vologda (they do not like us there and are afraid of us; they have removed Domozhirov from the election again), Tula, Krasnodar, and Kaliningrad.

And topping the ranking of the most hardline regional officials, who have refused to register the "Party of Progress" no fewer than four times each, are: Vladimir, Lipetsk (everything there is completely hellish), Voronezh (also hellish, but more sophisticated), and Tatarstan.
