The member of the election commission "Apsheronsk" disagreed with the decision on the claim for his exclusion from the commission.

The court partially satisfied the claim for the removal of the member of the election commission "Apsheronsk" Vladimir Kozorog, who did not recognize the election results. Kozorog intends to file an appeal.

As reported by "Caucasian Knot", the member of the territorial election commission (TEC) "Apsheronsk" Vladimir Kozorog stated that the TEC intends to appeal to the court with a claim recognizing him as systematically failing to perform his duties. He linked the initiative to his earlier refusal to recognize the results of the State Duma elections in the Apsheronsk district, voting against the final protocol and issuing a special opinion. On October 3, it became known that the TEC filed a claim in court, demanding to exclude Kozorog from the commission.

The Apsheronsk District Court partially satisfied the claim of the territorial election commission against the member of the TEC with the right to a decisive vote, Vladimir Kozorog, who refused to recognize the results after the September elections, writes "Horizontal Russia 7x7".*

According to Kozorog, the court did not immediately terminate his powers. He stated that he would study the reasoning part of the decision and appeal it to the Krasnodar Regional Court.

"I disagree with the grounds presented in the claim. The accusations against me, in my opinion, are formulated vaguely and are largely based on subjective assessments, personal judgments of individual commission members and other participants in the process, rather than on specific and verifiable facts," Kozorog pointed out.

He added that the court heard only part of the witnesses presented by his side.

"We presented 16 witnesses: members of the precinct election commissions, observers, volunteers, and voters. However, the court satisfied the request to interrogate only two of them. The other witnesses waited in the corridor for more than three hours and did not get the opportunity to speak. At the same time, witnesses from the plaintiff's side were interrogated and were able to present their position," he noted in his Telegram channel.

"Caucasian Knot" also reported that after the September elections, members of election commissions in Kuban expressed complaints about the organization of voting. Thus, on September 26, members of four TECs in the Prikuban district of Krasnodar pointed out in special opinions the anomalously high turnout and speed of voting outside the polling stations, as well as problems with voter lists, safe packages, and video surveillance.

On September 20, observer Ekaterina Burdyukova reported the opening of a safe with filled ballots at a polling station in Krasnodar.
