Vladimir Putin has suffered electoral losses, his party has been accused of election fraud, voter intimidation and ballot stuffing - and tens of thousands are hitting the streets in what might be a Russian Spring or even Occupying the Kremlin movement. Will Gnewt Gingrich accuse the demonstrators there of being unwashed and advise them to get a job?
The Guardian: "Dmitry Finikov, a 31-year-old small-business owner who volunteered as an election monitor, uploaded his tale to LiveJournal on Tuesday morning and it was viewed more than 150,000 times by Wednesday.
His photographs and video show how election officials at his polling site in central Moscow threw away the official result of the vote, which showed United Russia coming in third with 128 votes, behind the Communists (202) and liberal Yabloko (134). In the final tally, United Russia won the vote at the site."
