had an election. Yushchenko versus Yanukovych
didn't qualify as a free open democratic accountable election like the ones you get for school class rep.
Yushchenko versus Yanukovych
means - (according to aunty Beeb)
Viktor Yanukovych:
Aged 54
Imprisoned twice in his youth
Former governor of industrial Donetsk region
Raised pensions and public sector pay before election
Would make Russian second official language and allow dual citizenship
Viktor Yushchenko:
Aged 50
An economist and former central banker
Has an American wife
Promises to fight corruption, create five million jobs and pursue free market reforms
Would seek deeper relations with the Europe and the West For one thing there was way too much inteference in campaigning by the government and extra-state forces.
For another there was no guarantee of complete franchise.
And now they're on the street.
from ITAR TASS -
" KIEV, November 22 (Itar-Tass) - Prime Minister Viktor Yanukovich is confidently in the lead in the second round of the presidential race. The Central Electoral Commission announced, after processing 98.23 per cent of ballot papers, that Yanukovich got 49.57 of votes, and Yushchenko – 46.57 per cent. So, the gap between them is 3 per cent.
Yanukovich got all-out support in Donetsk Region (96.2 per cent), Lugansk Region (92.7 per cent), Sevastopol (88.97 per cent), the Crimea (81.99 per cent), the Zaporozhye Region (71.5 per cent), the Kharkov Region (70.26 per cent), the Odessa Region (67.58 per cent), the Nikolaev Region (69.67 per cent) and the Dnepropetrovsk Region (63.6 per cent).
Yushchenko is in the lead in Kiev (75 per cent), the Ternopol Region (93.53 per cent), the Ivano-Frankovsk Region (93.44 per cent), the Lvov Region (91.86 per cent), the Volyn Region (85.63 per cent), the Rovno Region (76.61 per cent), the Kiev Region (76.49 per cent), the Vinnitsa Region (75.87 per cent), the Poltava Region (60.87 per cent) and the Sumy Region (69.15 per cent).
New figures appeared on the Internet-site of the Central Electoral Commission of Ukraine despite the fact that Chairman of the Electoral Commission Sergei Kivalov announced a technical break in the processing of protocols coming from polling stations until 15.00, Moscow time. He said openly that “the situation is very serious. The struggle is going on for every per cent, for every vote. Everybody wants to hear as soon as possible who became a new president of Ukraine. However, we should work quickly but carefully."
and also BBC world-
"We are launching an organised movement of civil resistance," Mr Yushchenko told the crowd, who braved sub-zero cold. "Don't leave Independence Square until victory," he said.
He denounced the "total falsification" of Sunday's vote, which followed days of acrimonious wrangling over the results of the first round.
