A voting app run by supporters of prominent Putin critic Alexei Navalny is once again available for download on Apple\u2019s Russian App Store, The Washington Post<\/em> reports<\/a>, citing independent researchers and Navalny\u2019s chief of stall Leonid Volkov. Both Apple and Google removed the app<\/a> last year after the Kremlin threatened to criminally prosecute company employees in the country. <\/p>\n

The \u201cSmart Voting\u201d app contains over a thousand endorsements of Russian political candidates, WaPo<\/em> notes, with the idea being to help citizens consolidate votes against the ruling United Russia party, which has Vladimir Putin as its de facto leader. Pressure to remove the app came ahead of Russia\u2019s legislative election in September. WaPo<\/em> reports that Google restored the app shortly after the election.<\/p>\n
