“Russia’s upper house of parliament will on Dec. 13 officially announce the date of the March presidential election, Communist Party leader Gennady Zyuganov said on Tuesday”

Rather telling that an official announcement comes from the General Secretary of the Communist Party of Ruzzia.

This is not an accident but a message that Putin is making Ruzzia Soviet again.

If they held elections with 20 percent of their country occupied by criminal Russian and Chechen invaders, you would say it was unfair because they didn’t count votes in the occupied areas.

First kill the Bolshevik and Mohammedan invaders. Then have elections.

Zelenski would lose any fairly administered election in Ukraine, which is precisely why he won’t hold one. Maybe he should study up on how the US rigs theirs.

It's 25% of the East and that's now part of Russia. Feel free to try and take it back, tho. Get some munitions first.

Double standard warning:

If Ukraine has an election the Ruzzian trolls will say Crimea and Dumbass have to vote.

And then they’ll say it’s all part of Ruzzia.

Putin is a Stalinist who jails and/or murders his political opponents. Prigozhin won’t be voting in March, obviously.

Isn’t is hilarious how fast the Kremlin’s fellow travelers and useful fools have memory holed Prigozhin’s coup attempt and his murder? Proving once again there how intellectually and moral bankrupt they are.

Zelensky shouldn't be afraid to lose. If he loses the election, his successor will ask for peace with Russia.

Yeah, that’s not an official announcement in any way, shape, or form. Zyuganov is the head of the Communist Party of the Russian Federation (KPRF), which holds only slightly more sway in Russia than the Communist Party of the United States (CPUSA) holds in America.

But you already knew that (as the author of this article also likely did) but you should never let facts get in the way of a good (propaganda) line.

Don’t worry JonPreston, the hideous Russian invaders are gettin killed by the tens of thousands. The Donbas will always be Ukrainian. The one-time-zone country with its intrepid tactics will continue to humiliate the evil eleven-time zone country.
