Markhayev presented 226 signatures, including 32 signatures of deputies of representative bodies of municipal areas and city districts. The electoral Commission of the Republic of Buryatia recognized two signatures unauthentic and three was not read, because previously, these deputies put their signatures for another candidate, acting head of the Republic Alexei Tzudenova.

The head of the CEC of Russia Ella Pamfilova at the meeting asked the candidate from the Communist party, he gave the materials about possible violations to the attorney General. She noted that he finds convincing arguments on possible violations submitted to them on Friday by the working group.
“Vyacheslav Mikhailovich, please tell me: all the facts that you have gathered — very convincing, in my opinion, on the possible use of administrative resources, possible abuse you gave to the Prosecutor General? This is something that is beyond the purview of our Commission,” — said the CEC Chairman.
Markhayev in response said that such recourse to law enforcement was not. “I think that we will take into account your decision,” he added.
The CEC advised him to appeal, which would set out all information about possible violations, promising to forward the materials to the Prosecutor.
“To file a complaint with our accompanying letter, on behalf of the CEC, the Prosecutor General, to very detailed and thoroughly understand all the processes that have led to this ending, when really, we have to make the right solution, because we have no right to break the law, but completely mocking the content,” — said Pamfilova.
