Valentin Gorbunov, the head of the Moscow City Election Commission, is a crook and a thief who stole our elections from us. We have been dealing with crooks and thieves for a long time and know very well how to make life difficult for them.
Back in 2014, we found the Gorbunov family's company in Croatia. We knew that some real estate worth $420,000 was registered to it, but at the time we were unable to locate it. Now we are angrier and more persistent than we were in 2014.
Take a look at the Gorbunov family's Croatian properties.
And for the record, here is the company's registry extract. It lists the names, passport details, and addresses of the owners — the wife and son of Gorbunov, the head of the Moscow City Election Commission.
Here are their signatures, so you have no doubt.
Here is an excerpt from the Croatian company's financial statements. It owns real estate valued at 2,431,757 Croatian kuna — about €330,000.
And this is the town of Ika on the Adriatic Sea.
If you spend a very long time persistently ordering registry extracts for EVERY house in town (yes, sometimes this is how we do investigations), you can discover that Gorbunov's company owns two neighboring apartments in this building.
It is clearly visible even in the postcard-like photo above; it is very well situated.
These are a five-room apartment and a two-room apartment with a combined area of nearly 200 square meters.
And this is the view directly from the Gorbunovs' windows.
Peace and quiet, a beautiful bay with boats, and nothing to remind you that back in Russia you are a criminal who has spent 26 years working to destroy elections as such.
Gorbunov does not need free elections in Moscow. He has Croatia: everything functions perfectly there — presidents change, parliament changes, and the courts work properly. But you and I do not have a Croatia to escape to. We need Russia to be a place where people can live with dignity and choose those they trust to represent their interests.
Every Russian citizen has the right to free elections, to independent candidates, to a ballot that includes someone other than United Russia. Gorbunov and Sobyanin are trying to take that right away from us, but we will not let them. Be sure to come this Saturday, July 20, at 2:00 p.m. to the authorized rally on Sakharov Avenue.
And most importantly: SMART VOTING. Register, and urge everyone you know to register for Smart Voting. And in the September elections, vote in such a way that United Russia does not get a single vote. This is the most effective and powerful way to get back at Putin, Sobyanin, and the rest of the United Russia crowd.
