| Description | Russia's election authorities narrowed the field of contenders in the 2008 presidential election to six on Saturday, rejecting a bid by former Soviet dissident Vladimir Bukovsky because of his British nationality. Russia will vote in March to elect a successor to President Vladimir Putin, who has already anointed close ally Dmitry Medvedev as his preferred candidate, making Medvedev's election virtually a foregone conclusion. |
