Members of the commissions will wear special uniforms with symbols of the presidential elections in the Russian Federation and carry a bag with information materials.
«They will definitely have with them identification cards of members of election commissions and badges with their last name, first name, patronymic. This is mandatory. No anonymity in this case, so that our voters know who came to them and what they came with And I ask, of course, dear voters, do not be alarmed, if our colleagues from the precinct commissions knock or call at your house or apartment, they will be happy to answer all your questions about the elections and methods of voting,” Pamfilova said.
