"We have a lot of work to do, which is already being done, and we will give this work exactly as much time as we need to work in all issues in detail. We will not rush it," Prokhorov said on livejournal.com.

Prokhorov also said he gave and plans to give "a lot of time to the analysis of violations in the past elections after returning from vacation."

"We are preparing to file lawsuits and we intend to ensure that these lawsuits lead to rulings, from the punishment of people responsible for inflicting damage on our monitors to the invalidation of the election outcome in some polling stations," he said.

Commenting on the issue of his party, Prokhorov reiterated that "the main thing now is to make a final decision on the structure of the creation of the party's network structure."

"I already have some party experience and I definitely don't want to create an inefficient 'one-man' structure and make other mistakes," he said.

"We will create divisions of the party primarily in those places where we will find leaders and activists who are ready to work independently in the interests of the party. We will select potential leaders on a competitive basis, by conducting sociological polls and determining the rating of this or that candidate in a specific district," Prokhorov said.

Prokhorov also pointed out that "the process of registering the party will take at least three to four months even under the new legislation (which should become effective on April 12)."

"No regional foundation conferences can be held before the general foundation congress is held. For this reason, I am asking everyone to have patience and be ready for serious work," he said.

Prokhorov's press service earlier told Interfax that over 80,000 people have expressed a wish to enter the new party created by him.
