Ballots Art 2008
As you know there were some elections a few days ago in Russia. The new president was chosen.
Some Russians decided to use all their art skills in decorating the ballots and then made photos of them right at the election place before putting it inside the voting booth.
This papers on photos are ballots. A list of four candidates with a place to put a check sign.
Here is a few examples of how they voted (some are not too much translatable, the one above is “Preved Medved” thing, it came out from the very popular internet mem of 2006, when someone has posted this image with a bear (”medved” in Russian), saying “Preved!” (Hello!). For some reason it became very popular and got across all the country very fast, then later many more uses of this bear were in ads etc. Some find the word “medved” correlates with the new Russian presidents second name.
