Valentin Gorbunov, chief of the Moscow municipal electoral commission, said that to watch the live broadcast of the voting at any polling station, a person must register on the webvybory2012.ru website.

One can watch the broadcast from as many polling stations as he or she wishes.

About 100,000 people will monitor the voting process in Moscow.

Prime Minister Vladimir Putin pledged in December 2011 that nearly all 95,000 polling stations in Russia will be equipped with webcams by the time of the March 4 presidential elections in order to avoid accusations of electoral fraud.
