Fierce pre-election battle on TikTok for Russian-speaking votes
Social media, especially TikTok, sees intense pre-election campaigning as parties vie for Russian-speaking voters, dividing the legacy of the Harmony party.
Even before the official campaign period began, social media platforms, particularly TikTok, have been the scene of a fierce pre-election battle for the votes of Russian-speaking voters. This struggle is often referred to as the division of the "Harmony" legacy. The main parties involved are "Latvia First", "Sovereign Power", and "For Stability!". Of these, "Sovereign Power" and "For Stability!" have refrained from condemning Russia's invasion of Ukraine.
