Do you remember how, in 2011, we ran a campaign to distribute car stickers saying, “United Russia — the party of crooks and thieves”?
It became widespread, and United Russia members in some regions tried to fight it using their favorite method—administrative pressure. Several people were fined for allegedly illegal campaigning.
For one of those who was fined, RosEuroSud filed a complaint with the ECHR (European Court of Human Rights), and now we’ve received news that it has been communicated, which means the court will definitely consider it.
It will be interesting to see what decision they reach.
By the way, car stickers are a powerful tool. We hand them out every weekend—this Saturday in Zelenograd, at Yunosti Square, from 12:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m. Follow Nikolai Lyaskin’s Twitter.
In the regions where campaign offices have already opened, you can get them there.
And soon we’ll simply be mailing them out to volunteers who want them and have registered on the website.
