Free Donbas (
Ekaterina Gubareva was set to head the election list of Free Donbas for the elections of the People's Council of the Donetsk People's Republic of 11 November 2018[3] but on 29 September 2018 she was excluded from this list after she was held in custody by unknown people.[4] After this incident she left for Rostov-on-Don (in Russia).[4]
2014 elections
Chairman of the organization, Yevgeny Orlov, said that the party "goes with the same slogans and with the same program that supported the absolute majority of the population of the region during the referendum on May 11". It focuses on respect for people of all nationalities and cultures that reside on the territory of the republic, restoration of destroyed infrastructure, development of mechanisms of social protection and social justice.[5]
Polls
According to polls for the elections to the parliament of the People's Democratic Republic conducted by the monitoring group of Socis Sociology Support Fund held on October 28, 2014, 39.1% of respondents were going to vote for the public organization "Donetsk republic", 31.6% were inclined to support the public movement "Free Donbas", which also included the party" Novorossiya ", and the remaining 29.3% did not decide on the answer. At the same time, during a rather short period of the agitation campaign, the party managed to significantly increase its representative potential: at the beginning of the pre-election race, following the results of the preliminary opinion poll conducted by the Donetsk University of Management, only 11% of voters were ready to vote for the party.[6][7]
