As of today, YABLOKO collected over 1.7 mln signatures
for registration of Grigory Yavlinsky in the presidential
elect ion campaign. Collection of signatures will go until
January 15, sheets with voters signatures have to be filed
and prepared for dispatch to the Central Electoral Commission
on January 18.
YABLOKO activists think that they will manage to collect
the remaining 400,000 signatures (as a non-parliamentary party
such as YABLOKO has to submit to the Central Electoral Commission
2.1 mln signatures for registration of its candidate in the
face). Grigory Yavlinskys headquarters call all the supporters
of an alternative at presidential elections to focus on the
solution of this task.
Without this all our successful steps made earlier, as well
as our present victories, will remain on interim results without
any continuation, Grigory Yavlinsky wrote in his blog addressing
his supporters. Consequently on March 4 the society may be
deprived of any constructive alternative. Moreover, the society
will have to face a difficult choice: between the present
very bad (what has been trampling us under foot and what we
can not bear any more) and a well forgotten bad.
Technically a nationwide collection of signatures is a routine
and time-consuming thing. But for a citizen it is virtually
a trifle. It is not a going to a rally. It is easier than
going to a shop, Yavlinsky wrote in his blog. He called all
who can sign up or become a volunteer to come to YABLOKOs
offices in their regions.
Make one more effort, and it will bring our victory closer.
Remember that timely actions are extremely important in real
and not virtual politics. As next generations will have to
do or amend what we failed to accomplish and what had to be
done by us today, he concluded.
