Videos from polling surveillance cameras at polling stations showed people trying to shove multiple ballots into boxes, to various degrees of success. There was also footage from several regions of scuffles and confrontations between poll workers and election monitors trying to expose violations. Russia's prominent independent election monitoring group Golos pointed to another video depicting ballot box stuffing in the Bryansk region, which borders Belarus and Ukraine. She showed a video, in which police confronted a group of people in an apartment containing video equipment, ballots and a ballot box. Golos, which has been exposing Russian election problems since 2000, disagreed with Pamfilova's assessment of the scale of violations this year.
