Non-Sports: In Russia, Music "Competition" Show Rigs You!!!

Was looking over Twitter for comments on the Sharks and that whole hand-pass debacle from last night and came across this from the BBC...

The result of this season of "The Voice Kids" in Russia has been invalidated because of Russian bots which bot-voted a pop singer's 10 year-old daughter the winner!

About 300 phone numbers bot-voted about 30000 votes for the winner, while no other contestant got more than a couple thousand votes.

Sounds like they learned well from their American counterparts!!
