On September 10, 2017, the residents of Moscow and Troitsk will elect their municipal deputies. 

Guided by the necessity to protect the voice of each voter, Golos movement for protection of voters’ rights, Citizen Observer project, Sonar interregional public movement of observers, and Elections. Public Control organization agreed to coordinate their activities on the single election day of September 10, once again acting as an alliance of independent observers.

Our cooperation during Moscow elections dates back several years. At the end of 2012, a single territorial structure, based on the common network of district election monitoring communities, was created in Moscow. During the elections of September 8, 2013, we created the alliance of independent election monitors for the first time, and organized training of many volunteer observers and members of election commissions. Also in 2013, a common HQ was established, which included a common call center and press center for election media coverage. The alliance’s effective work ultimately complicated electoral fraud during elections of the mayor of Moscow. On September 10, we will again work together as an alliance.

We invite Russia’s citizens and independent election monitors associations, interested in the country’s democratic progress, to sign up to be election monitors and to join our alliance’s fight for free and honest elections. We call on parties and candidates that aim to democratize Russia to actively cooperate with the alliance. The single election day may and should become the starting point for such transformations of the elected institutions that will give new impetus to the development of civil society in Russia.
