Hello. If you're reading this post in the "Navalny" app, congratulations. You have beaten Roskomnadzor (Russia’s state media and internet censor) and censorship. Thank you for choosing the right side! Alexei will be very glad to know that thousands of people across the country responded to his call.
Of course, you’ve already seen the Smart Voting section. It will be updated very soon, and you’ll be able to fully test it before the election. You’ll be able to enter your address, find your polling station, and see a test candidate. Our IT team is doing everything necessary right now to make the app as convenient as possible for you to use.
In the meantime, we have a small task for you. Send this app to two or three of your friends. Let them read Alexei’s blog too and be able to find their candidate, even when Roskomnadzor blocks the Smart Voting website.
We promise we won’t send any annoying notifications. We’ll only bother you once—on election day.
And if you’re not reading this post in the app, join us now! Here’s the link for iOS, and here it is for Android. Download it, and don’t let Putin and his Roskomnadzor decide for you what you’re allowed to read on the internet.
