Fox News
The Russian government has blocked Civic Initiative Party candidate Boris Nadezhdin from appearing on the ballot in March following a dispute over signatures.
Authorities claimed that approximately 15% of the signatures of endorsement produced by the Nadezhdin campaign were irregular or inadmissible, breaching the 5% threshold allowed.

Nadezhdin previously reported 158,000 signatures in support of his campaign — 58,000 more than the 100,000 needed to qualify, according to reports from Russian outlets.
