A voting election was rigged in Russia so that it appeared that 140% of the population voted... So it became an internet meme.
"In Russia, 70% is a fail."
"Russian alcohol is 140%."
"In Russia, Prime Minister vote for you."
"140% Russia"

While most of the other definitions on this topic are technically correct, none of them attribute the joke to its originator, Yakov Smirnoff, an actor and standup comedian who is pretty recent and also still alive.
I can't believe the contributors to this definition were so stupid that they think a joke by a comedian who was incredibly famous during the late 80s and is still very famous is actually a joke that just "comes from the internet"!
In soviet russia, contributors to internet sites probably know what they're talking about, because they don't here.

A magical place where things happen in quite the opposite from the good ol' USA, and where men in furry hats follow you but disappear when you look back.
In America, you can always find a party, but in Soviet Russia, the Party finds you!
In Soviet Russia, cold catches you!
