In 2011, a referendum was held on the dismissal of the Saeima before its expiry. Therefore, in 2011, the parliamentary elections took place one year after the previous one.

In Latvia, the election campaign is known as the pre-election campaign. However, we refer to it as the election campaign throughout the chapter and book.

The highlighted problem of Russia’s involvement in the Brexit referendum, elections in the United States, and other political processes in the West provide evidence that there is indeed a basis for concern that internal political processes may be used for the achievement of the political goals of outside forces.

An outstanding example was the show organised by Latvia’s First Party/Latvian Way candidate Ainars Šlesers for mayor of Riga in 2009. It was a show with popular musicians, free energy drinks, and other attractions; at the culmination of the event, the candidate was symbolically lifted in the air with a crane (LETA 2009). However, the party only obtained twelve mandates out of sixty on the Riga City Council (Central Election Commission 2009), and today the party no longer exists.
