Does anyone here read Russian?
We want to know if Marat Safin was elected to the Russian parliament. Could you translate this report?
Naturally we assume that Marat won, but we need details. We gather he ran on the Putin ticket and the election is disputed. Ahh, disputed elections. Marat should just marry us and run in the Philippines.
Got the voting results for Marat’s district? Send them over.
P.S. If we wanted a machine translation we would’ve gotten a machine translation. We want an actual Russian speaker because we have questions.

According to Google Translate:
Marat Safin has voted in Nizhny Novgorod
The world-famous ex-tennis player has received a special absentee certificate
Marat Safin arrived at the polling station, located at the Pedagogical University about 10 am on your Porsche Cayenne. He was alone, unaccompanied, however, easily found a site.
Marat was in a great mood, joking with reporters and said that tomorrow “will definitely be celebrating.”
By the way, leaving the polling place, Marat Safin met with his fellow party members and a neighbor on the list of Vadim Bulavinov.

Looks like he’s in!
Former world No. 1 Marat Safin has swapped tennis for politics after being voted into the Russian Federal Parliament, the Duma.
The two-time grand slam winner, who retired from the sport in 2009, is a member of Vladimir Putin’s United Russia party and has won a seat in the Duma’s lower house as a representative for the Nyzhny Novgorod region, which is roughly located 500km from Moscow.
