Turns out the real results were briefly made public prior to them being snatched down. The other results showed that only 30% of the population voted in total and only 15% voted for annexation and 15% against.
Meaning it was no where near a slam dunk as the Russian's try to present to the world.. Imagine that..

This a fucking shit! Im from Crimea and all my friends and acquaintances voted for annexation with RU, the lie is only in that, that actually voted a 2/3 of population. That part of the population which was against annexation, those simply didn't go on elections, but them about 30-35%
therefore Crimean people consider that actually results were about 65% of the population for accession
