How to win an election Vladimir Putin-style: Wrestlers, nuns and 'independent' monitors are caught on video fixing votes as Russian strongman 'cruises to victory with more than 70% of the vote' so he can rule for six more years

Shocking videos show blatant ballot rigging as exit polls show Vladimir Putin is headed towards a landslide victory in Sunday's Russian presidential election.

In the Moscow suburb of Lyubertsy, a stash of filled-in votes was put in the ballot box by an election official.
