Tuva voted for a new president on Sunday in an election likely to hand victory to President Vladimir Putin's chosen successor but criticised by the opposition for a lack of real competition. Turnout at presidential polls hit 59% as of 2 p.m. Tuvan time, and exceeded 70% by the end of the vote. Only 9 out of 182 election polls protocols have been processed by the time and they show most voters want to reward Putin for eight years of rapid growth and rising wages by backing Medvedev.
