Udgodskaya registered as a “rival” to guarantee the minimum requirement of two candidates. However, the former mayor’s plan did not work out as he had imagined. The maid won the election by a significant margin.

Nikolai Loktev believed that no one would vote for him and that he would remain mayor. But the people are fed up and have elected Marina Udgodskaya, “a member of the local electoral commission told the BBC.

“He was in awe too!” A woman told the BBC, who did not want to be identified.

In an interview, the maid described herself as a “fake” candidate who was “not ready” for such a quick “promotion.”

“I didn’t think people would actually vote for me,” he told the Telegram Podyom news channel.

Even so, he won almost 62% of the vote. His boss managed to get only 34%.

“I did everything necessary in this job; there are no problems in the village,” Loktev told the BBC on one of his last days in office.

“Clearly, people wanted a change,” concluded the 58-year-old former mayor.
