Judges of the Constitutional Court said they had received requests to annul the result, citing intelligence documents that were declassified this week detailing allegations of Russian influence on social media.
The law stipulates that, in the event of the annulment of the elections, they should resume on the second Sunday after the date of the annulment - which would have meant on 22 December.
However, the court has decided to ask the government to resume the entire electoral process, and therefore the electoral campaign.
Not only do they overturn the will of the people based on vague allegations of Russian influence on social media, they don't bother to follow the law regarding when the election should resume.

This is pretty fucking wild.
