Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov made this remarks to Russia’s RBC news website after the New York Times quoted him forecasting a 90% victory for Putin in next year's presidential election. "Although elections are a requirement of democracy and Putin himself has decided to hold them, theoretically it’s possible not to hold them,” he said.

For a few days already, 0x815 and another user posting news about Ukraine are getting in the range of -5 to -10 within minutes after a submission or comment.

Either automated or someone with a few accounts and RSS is following them around.
