I find myself surprised that such a large percentage of people use Telegram in Belarus.
One might wonder if perhaps some government who wanted nukes on Russia's border might expend some effort into discrediting an election of somebody who was blocking that objective.
Telegram accounts can be made in an automated manner, for somebody sufficiently motivated.
