> Yulia Navalnaya and Maxim Katz have agreed on a joint strategy for Russia’s September 18–20 State Duma elections. They recommend voting for any party except United Russia on the party-list ballot, backing the strongest challenger in single-member districts, and gathering at polling stations at noon on September 20 as a public protest.
