Putin Takes a Page Out of the Democrats' Playbook and Bans Opponent from Election

Because all dictators are the same. Yekaterina Duntsova barred from running against Putin in election

Former TV journalist Yekaterina Duntsova was barred on Saturday from running against President Vladimir Putin in an election next March because of alleged mistakes in her application to register as a candidate.

So mistakes in her application. And her actual ability to win the election also disqualified her.

The immediate torpedoing of her campaign will be seized on by Putin’s critics as evidence that no one with genuine opposition views will be allowed to stand against him in the first presidential election since he launched the war in Ukraine. They see it as a fake process with only one possible outcome.

The Colorado Supreme Court is pleased with this outcome. The California Democrats are climbing onto the same "We hate the very idea of democracy" bandwagon.
