I have no idea how it affects business apart from a broad-based knowledge that it cannot be good for it. But I have to admit I had a good chuckle at one report of the election. Here's an extract describing one polling station result:
"The final tally: Putin, 1,482 votes; Gennady A. Zyuganov, the Communist Party leader, one vote.
This result was in itself statistically improbable. But even more difficult...to explain was the turnout: there were only 1,389 people registered in the precinct, meaning that the turnout was 107 percent."
