The playing hall is increasingly becoming the domain of the election campaigns of Kirsan Ilyumzhinov (Chess FIDE Fidelity) and Bessel Kok (The Right Move). More and more one sees chess players showing support by wearing caps and shirts with electoral slogans. Today Kamsky and Nakamura expressed their preference for Bessel Kok and Ali Nihat Yazici. Do we have a battle of the real kind? Although it is commonly thought that compared to what it once has been, this election battle is more a boy scout’s fight. We should be happy about that.
