20.12.99 - Press-service of the Head of the Government RK Informs:

The Elections in Karelia to the State Duma and to the Petrozavodsk City Council were Marked by the High Activity of Electorate

"We consider the results of elections quite objective," the Head of the Government of the Republic Sergey Katanandov commented the elections.

The results were not unexpected. The results of the block "Unity" and "The Union of Right Powers" are a bit more than it has been prognosed, the results of the "left wing" are lower than their ratings have been. Sergey Katanandov expressed hope that the work of a new Duma will be constructive.

The Head of the republic congratulated the independent candidate to the State Duma deputy, the Chairman of the House of Representatives of Legislative Assembly Valentina Pivnenko, who took the first place in the list of the candidates of a single mandate electoral district.
