Vladimir Vukulov, Vice Speaker of the Kaliningrad Region Duma
(regional parliament), and present deputy of the regional
parliament Alexander Shatskikh joined the YABLOKO party and
topped the party list at the regional parliamentary elections
that will take place in March 2011. The third top person in
the list is Oleg Konshin, member of Kaliningrad Region Electoral
Commission.
Vukulov and Shatskikh have not belong to any political party,
but were members of the Elder Generation organization and
were also deputies of the United Russia faction in the Kaliningrad
Region Duma.
Now the tops of YABLOKO’s list in Kaliningrad are members
of the YABLOKO’s Pensioners of Russia faction.
In November 2010 YABLOKO’s leader Sergei Mitrokhin conducted
negotiations in Kaliningrad with the Elder Generation. This
resulted in a decision to conduct a joint campaign at the
forthcoming elections to the regional parliament.
According to Mitrokhin, joint campaigning will allow to double
the efforts and make regional and federal election campaigns
most efficient.
