Lol, it does. And lol at the apology. And lol at the projection.

The late Russian opposition leader Alexei Navalny, who died suddenly in an Arctic penal colony in February, had asked his supporters in Russia and abroad to come to the polls at midday on Sunday and either spoil their ballots, or to vote for one of the three opposition candidates permitted to run.

“I think we all know the result,” said a man who gave his first name, Dimitri. “But we are doing what we can.”

Gee, Russia is stealing elections and has for decades, and even Russians in Serbia knew this before the protests and still went out to vote, risking their lives. Where does this disprove my claim that Russia meddles in elections?
