International expert from Mexico assessed polling stations work in Ufa

UFA, 18 March 2018. /Bashinform News Agency, Ksenia Kalinina/. On March 18, the Ufa Public Press Center "Elections-2018" was visited by an international expert from Mexico, the chief of office of the head of the Mexico City Congress Raul Torres. In an interview with reporters, he said that he had been at five polling stations in the capital of our republic.

"I saw how young people came to vote, parents with children, pensioners. No violations were found. Everything was fine. The only upsetting thing was the weather", the international expert said.

Answering the question how the elections in Russia differ from the elections in Mexico, he noted a technical component.

"You have electronic machines (electronic devices for counting votes) to count votes. They do it quickly and thus ensure transparency of elections".
