The deputy of the Legislative Assembly of St. Petersburg Boris Vishnevsky showed an election poster with his counterparts. They took his name and also made similar hairstyles and beards.
Earlier, the territorial election commission re-registered Yabloko deputy and columnist for Novaya Gazeta Boris Lazarevich Vishnevsky as a candidate for elections to the Legislative Assembly of St. Petersburg. Also registered were the namesake of the deputy – Boris Ivanovich Vishnevsky (past name on the passport – Victor Bykov) from the Green Party and Boris Gennadievich Vishnevsky (Alexei Shmelev).

On August 2, Boris Ivanovich, together with the candidate from the Green Alternative, Aleksey Terekhov, demanded that Deputy Vishnevsky be removed from the elections because of his “involvement” in extremism.
Both “doubles” – Boris Ivanovich and Boris Gennadievich – changed their name shortly before the election race. Thus, the bulletin will list three Vishnevskys in a row.
