On the eve of the elections to the regional parliament, the menu of election promises from deputies of all stripes is replete with new headings . This year, the residents of Irkutsk are on the verge of an attraction of unprecedented generosity – almost the majority of the city council of Irkutsk vying with each other offers their “pickles”, taking part in the race to the parliamentary Olympus.
One problem: under a bright candy wrapper often hides not a chocolate candy at all.
The upcoming elections to the regional parliament threaten to turn into severe stagnation for the vast majority of the region’s territories. And if in the absolute superiority of cities and regions, the experienced names of deputies-idols become heralds of this black yoke, then the city of Irkutsk, now torn into unequal parts between as many as five parliamentary districts, is infected with an even more terrible plague. Its name is the Duma of Irkutsk, which almost completely went to conquer the parliamentary Olympus.
But who is waiting for them there, pray tell?
The fact that the city deputies announced to the parliament “we are going to attack you”, Babr said back in February. Then careful shuffling towards the Gray House was betrayed by many deputies. Now that the trend has officially taken shape with the lists of United Russia for the primaries, there is no doubt: the Duma will be orphaned, if not this year, then next year.
After all, one of the fundamental questions is: what will happen to those who do not reach the parliamentary Olympus? The next elections to the Irkutsk Duma, which will be held next year in 2024, are just around the corner. And will the voters believe the political guest performers, who without a twinge of conscience are ready to leave them for the sake of a new, brighter “medal” – the mandate of the Legislative Assembly?
“He left, but promised to return” – a losing strategy for a deputy. And games in the party locomotives, actively launched by United Russia, can hit the deputies themselves, who rushed into the embrasure of the parliamentary campaign.
About the fact that many go into the campaign playfully, without serious intentions on the hands and hearts of voters, United Russia speak without much hesitation, although with the usual degree of veil. “Preparing for next year”
Recognition, as psychologists say, is the first step to solving a problem. Cautiously recognizing that the majority of people on the ballots will simply pull the votes of gullible grandmothers, covering themselves with other, less attractive characters, United Russia signs its sincere intention to once again push into parliament those whom the residents themselves would never have chosen. This was already the case in 2021, when she unexpectedly became a deputy Maria shame of the Irkutsk region Vasilkov.
And what shame we are preparing this year, the residents will find out very soon. The main thing in September, after the ahs at the voting results, is to keep in mind an important thought – a list of the names of the “heroes” who sold the deputy chair this year. And when next year they will skip running again to “knock out” their chair – to remember what a pig they have planted for the Irkutsk people.
And she still grunts, be sure.
