looks like the no vote was being mobilized by the far right, communists and a senior's organisation as well as putin. hardly the voice of the common person.

the eu has many similar agreements with complete shitholes why try and stop this one?
this is a new referendum law activated only last year. This was the first topic we could vote for.

btw 32,2 % is a huge number for a topic like this. Last EU puppet general elections in 2014 35% of the people turned up to vote. Mainstream media is hammering on this 32,2% saying it's so low, while completely ignoring the percentage of the 2014 elections. That wasn't too low back then according to them.
