Speaker of the KBR Parliament of the 6th convocation Tatyana Egorova voted at a polling station in KBSU

Today, elections of deputies of the republic’s parliament of the seventh convocation are taking place in Kabardino-Balkaria. In the Kabardino-Balkarian State University named after Kh.M. Berbekov, polling stations are open at three sites.

At the 147th polling station, located in the main building of KBSU, the speaker of the KBR Parliament of the sixth convocation Tatyana Egorova voted. She came to fulfill her civic duty together with her husband.

This is a very important socio-political event. We all understand that in the current situation, the Parliament of the new convocation will have to solve even more serious complex tasks. Therefore, it is important that people with the necessary professional knowledge and experience be elected, who understand the complexity and importance of the upcoming work, responsibility for its results, and, of course, sincerely care about the future of Kabardino-Balkaria and Russia. I really hope that, understanding the importance of the moment, our voters will take full responsibility for exercising their electoral rights, come to the polling stations and make their informed choice,
