The leader of the Russian United Democratic Party YABLOKO Sergei Mitrokhin was reelected chair to the Moscow organisation of the party.

On Sunday, May 23, forty delegates of the conference of the Moscow branch of YABLOKO elected Sergei Mitrokhin by a secret ballot Chairman of the Moscow Regional Branch of the YABLOKO Party for another two-year term.

There were no abstentions or dissenting votes, four bulletins were recognised invalid, Interfax correspondent reports.

Also it turned out that there were alternatives to Sergei Mitrokhin by the time of the voting: two other candidates refused to take their nominations.

“Sergei Mitrokhin is an outstanding leader who managed to preserve the party in the toughest situation,” Andrei Babushkin, deputy head of the Moscow YABLOKO leader, said during nomination of the candidates.

Sergei Mitrokhin has been leading the Moscow branch of YABLOKO since 2004 and it is the fourth time that he is elected head of the Moscow party organisation. Also Sergei Mitrokhin has been holding the post of the Chair of the Russian United Democratic Party YABLOKO (elected in June 2008).
