Tiraspol, August 22. /Novosti Pridnestrovya/. Pridnestrovie will have own representatives in the State Duma of the Russian Federation. On September 18, on the Single Voting Day, the citizens of the Russian Federation residing in the PMR will be able to vote not only for their favorite party, but also for an independent candidate. The voting stations located in Pridnestrovie will be included in the structure of the Russian federal districts. Thus, the deputies elected there will promote the interests Russia's residents, as well as the citizens living in the PMR. As a result, 7 deputies representing Pridnestrovie will be in the State Duma of the Russian Federation.

«It is a very big plus for Pridnestrovie because our Russian citizens will personally see their candidate and will know an official who can be addressed to for the solution of their problems," the chairman of the Pridnestrovie's Central Electoral Committee (CEC) Elena Gorodetskaya noted following the results of the meeting with several candidates. She explained that two bulletins would be given to the citizens of the Russian Federation during the vote: one — for the parties, and another — for an independent candidate.

Participants of the Russian electoral campaign visited the Pridnestrovie's CEC, where they provided all necessary information on the State Duma Elections in Pridnestrovie, as well as they visited their future voters.

«Today, we discussed the issues of training and professional development of the Pridnestrovie's healthcare workers on the basis of the existing federal medical organizations in the Kaliningrad Oblast," the Russian State Duma candidate in the 98th Federal Electoral Constituency (Kaliningrad Oblast) Alexey Silanov told about the meeting with the Dnestrovsk residents. According to another candidate being an acting deputy of the Russian State Duma Sergey Chizhov, at his meeting the Pridnestrovians wondered whether Russia would continue giving economic and humanitarian help to the republic and how Russian citizens residing in Pridnestrovie could use some measures of Russia's social support. «We studied all information, we will analyze it and work out a plan," he noted.

At the same time, according to one more candidate Oleg of Konkovo (he will represent Bendery and the Irkutsk region), considerable distance between Russia and Pridnestrovie won't prevent parliamentarians from connecting the voters. «I have 16 municipalities in Siberia, and I promised to come to my voters there every quarter, but flying here from Moscow is even closer, than to Irkutsk. So I believe, the distance won't be an obstacle," the candidate emphasized.

20 polling stations will be opened in Pridnestrovie on September, 18, the citizens of the Russian Federation will be able to vote for a favorite party and a candidate there.
