Russia’s presidential election has entered its second day of voting, with citizens heading to the polling booths.

But, with President Vladimir Putin’s credible rivals either imprisoned, in exile, or dead, he is certain to win six more years in office after the vote.

Voting is taking place in Russia over three days until Sunday.

The first day of voting saw incidents involving green dye being poured into ballot boxes, the boxes being set alight and fireworks being set off inside polling stations, which, according to state media, saw eight people arrested.
