7 candidates to run for vacant MP seat in Homel
Seven candidates in Homel's Navabelistkaya constituency will run for the vacant MP seat on Local Election Day on March 23, 2014.
No deputies were elected in this constituency in 2012. The pro-government and opposition candidates withdrew and electors did not vote for the LDP candidate back then.
CEC secretary Mikalai Lazavik has commented on the current candidates:
"There are 7 candidates for one seat in that constituency. Two of them represent political parties – the Fair World and the United Civil Party. The rest are unaffiliated.”
Some of the candidates collected signatures in workers' associations. There are three women among them. There is a doctor, teacher, associate professor, fitter, etc.
The parliamentary elections are combined with the local elections appointed for March 23 in Homel.
