LDPR demands an investigation into who is transferring money to Alexei Navalny’s Yandex wallet MOSCOW, August 2. /ITAR-TASS/. LDPR will today send an appeal to Russian Prosecutor General Yury Chaika demanding an investigation into who is transferring money to the Yandex wallet of Moscow mayoral candidate Alexei Navalny. This was announced to journalists today by Liberal Democratic leader Vladimir Zhirinovsky. "We are appealing to Russia’s Prosecutor General with a demand to check who is sending money to Navalny’s account," he said. According to Zhirinovsky, Navalny currently has 20 million rubles in his campaign account, and "money is coming in through Yandex in amounts of 10,000 to 15,000 rubles every 10 seconds." "What, did people suddenly run to the banks and start taking part in this system?" the LDPR leader asked. "We can’t figure out who is transferring money to him—Washington or Chukotka (a remote region in Russia’s Far East)," Zhirinovsky claimed, referring to the way this money transfer system works. According to data published on the Moscow City Election Commission website, Navalny has the second-largest campaign fund /after acting mayor Sergei Sobyanin/: he has raised 22.259 million rubles, of which 10.902 million rubles have already been spent on the campaign. http://www.itar-tass.com/c12/827856.html To make it easier for Prosecutor General Chaika and V. V. Zhirinovsky to figure out whether it’s Washington or Chukotka, I’m publishing statistics on the ages of people donating to the campaign. The statistics are based on information people enter themselves on the payment forms (as required by law). Which age groups are making the most donations?
Which age group contributed the largest total amount of money in absolute terms?
People of what age made the largest donations (the most surprising chart)?
I understand that V. V. Zhirinovsky is terribly upset that in the entire country there is probably not a single 61-year-old who would give even one kopeck to his "party," while people that age are making the largest donations to us. But he, Prosecutor General Chaika, Sobyanin, and Putin will just have to accept it. It’s Chukotka, not Washington. The people are funding this election campaign. And we have the most transparent and understandable funding system. I’m looking forward to hearing other candidates, including the LDPR representative, explain where their money comes from. If you would like to become one of the sponsors of our campaign, then thank you very much—please go here. We have already raised about 30 million rubles. Tomorrow we’ll give the exact amount and publish a chart showing the regional breakdown.
