I just noticed that one of the federal subjects of Russia (Nenets Autonomous Okrug) actually voted against the constitutional reform surprisinlgly
Does anyone have any idea why they voted against? Not like it matters lol but still funny not to see a clean swipe for Putin for once. Also normally I thought the regions that were the most anti-Putin were like Moscow and St. Petersburg?
Protest vote, anger over a plan to unify them with the neighbouring region Arkhangelsk (people apparently think would strip them of special government funding). Does not seem to be anything specifically to do with anti-Putin sentiment. Personal speculation on my part, maybe the lower yes vote there and in Arkhangelsk also had something to do with Anger at a recent military nuclear accident near Nyonoksa and the accusations of a cover up.
