The Russian Supreme Court has upheld the ban on Rodina taking part in the Moscow Duma elections. The nationalist party was barred for running a racist campaign ad.
RIA Novosti have produced a factsheet on Rodina. More background, and plenty of debate, is also available from this siberianlight.net post.
The election will be held tomorrow, and I’ll bring you an update of the results as soon after that as possible.
