Head Election Commission Allowed Voters With Errors In Registrat
Head Election Commission Allowed Voters With Errors In Registration Lists To Vote
Territorial Election Commission for district №160 (Sumy city) allowed its commission divisions to distribute ballots to voters who had small errors in the voter list – incomplete names, incorrect patronymics, date of birth. However, all other information was correct.
As of 17:00 the Commission received complaints from 1100 voters. Of these 510 – incorrectly spelled surname, name, and patronymic, 510 – were missing from the voter list, other – deceased, for whom relatives came complain that the name was included.
People at the Territorial Election Commission had to endure three-hour long waiting lines. There was even an old woman born in 1919, who had to fight to have her name added to the voter registration list. It is known that a lot former residents of Sumy were registered to vote who have not lived in Sumy for many years. For example, an invitation to vote was sent to a woman born in 1978, though she has not been in Sumy for ten years and is now a citizen of Russia.
Reference. This morning hundreds of people, who either couldn’t find their names in the voter lists, or their given information was incorrect, went to the territorial election commission, demanding to be added to the lists. Earlier the head of the election commission for district №160 Valentyna CPUDKO, leading a press conference, affirmed that “Sumy is 100% ready for the election.” At that time she did not conceal there were “some unforeseen mistakes in the voter lists,” which in several areas, according to her words, affect almost half of all voters. In Valentyna SPUDKO’s opinion, this is because the voter lists were compiled by housing organizations with no appropriate qualifications. October 20 a representative of Viktor Yuschenko at election district №160 Evhen SYDENKO appealed to the public prosecutor of Sumy oblast to open a criminal investigation against municipal head of Sumy City Volodymyr OMELCHENKO because of untrustworthy voter lists for Sumy.

O.Zinchenko – We are proud with our people
O.Zinchenko – We are proud with our people
Kuchma, Yanukovych, Medvedchuk, just a couple of days ago were trying to persuade themselves that there are keeping the power in their hands, but they just lost the feeling of the country they live in- said Zinchenko to journalists
According to him, they give too much trust to Russian polittechnologyst Gleb Pavlovski and his fund “Obshestvennoie mnenie”- “public opinion”. If you’d like to know the scenario of possible provocations and falcifications of the elections, go to their web cite. From 11 am, they discuss provocations that later started to happen on the polling stations between 4 and 6 pm. By the way, Pavlovski is the only one, whose exit poll results give preference to Yanukovych, everyone else says opposite – said Zinchenko
By Zinchenko words, the current authorities are losing exclusively due to their narrow-mindedness and stupidity. After the elections, they will have to carry responsibility for falsifications and their other sins. To the previously mentioned names, Zinchenko added name of the Minister of Internal Affairs M.Bilokon.
This is a signal that the people have changed. Now, the situation with elections in Ukraine may seriously influence further development of democracy in Russia and in Belarus, and on whole Post-Soviet space. We are proud with our people

Digest by 16:00, October 31: We Are Ahead, Provocations Still Pending
The Central Electoral Committee reports that, as of 14.00, twenty three per cent of voters entitled to vote have voted. As reported by the Maidan activists present now at electoral commissions, this figure in fact reaches already 50 per cent.
By the activity of voters (again, as reported by Kivalov’s office), Zhytomyr, Kirovohrad and Luhansk regions are leading.
As reported by a Russian radio station “Echo of Moscow”, the first results of exit polls are available. According to Ivan Starikov, international affairs analyst, Viktor Yushchenko is leading with a considerable break away, “Yanukovych is considerably behind, the third place in the race belongs to Moroz, the fourth place is Symonenko’s”.
After that the authorities raised their activity – whole bundles of illegal ballot papers are inserted into the boxes, opposition observers are not allowed to exercise monitoring, international observers are beaten and driven out of the polling stations, electricity and running water are being cut off.
Donetsk and Kharkiv regions report the greatest number of violations. It should be noted that the regional headquarters of Nasha Ukraina bloc are working efficiently enough making official records of violations or having these violations registered on video tapes. In many cases they simply block the violations.
Because of a huge number of errors in the voting lists, spontaneous rallies are going on.
In Kiev some preparations for provocations are being observed – the number of policemen has increased, special units and military equipment cars, trucks without registration numbers loaded with loose materials are being concentrated near the CEC. That means that our showmen from special police units, uniformed and not, are going to please the audience of the pro-government TV channels with new horror shows.
In spite of these threats, Kyiv is overwhelmed with something very close to euphoria. People are serene and sure of their victory. Political news is optimistic, too – Yulia Tymoshenko has just conducted successful talks on the formation of new parliamentary majority, whereas in Boryspil the representatives of pro-government parties are hurriedly preparing to leave.
The interest of ordinary Ukrainians in the progress of voting is terrifying – the “Razom” site has crashed because of overload.
Gangsters do not leave objective mass media without their attention – the opposition media are being continuously assaulted by crooks, the pressmen are being thrown out of the polling stations.
A lot of persons with absentee voter cards are voting in Kyiv, while many Kyiv inhabitants did not find their names in the lists. At the same time people with absentee cards from West and Center of Ukraine are not allowed to vote in Donetsk.
According to current information, Yushchenko is leading even in case of mass falsifications. But it is too early to rejoice – more and more special police units and groups of provokers are being drawn up to Kyiv.

СІЗО Dnipropetrovsk oblast: violations
According to monitoring results of districts that are located in СІЗО, the following violations took place (in Dnipropetrovsk oblast):
1. Territorial Election Commission is obligated by law to inform that imprisoned citizens were excluded from voter lists – this was not done, and they continue to be included in the lists.
2. There are problems accessing the voter lists by people who were in solitary confinement – they did not have the opportunity to review their information.
3. Premises for voting did not conform to the law. СІЗО №3 in the city of Dnipropetrovsk – this was not the only place, since voting took place in nine other small rooms in each of the bodies of СІЗО. There were problems with privacy – voting took place in half-open booths. Monitors could not adequately do their job, since they needed to be present in nine places at the same time.
Informing voters: members of the election commission did not have access to meet with the voters – there was a special announcement (in the words of the heads), that on the day of the elections no representatives of the presidential candidates cannot visit imprisoned voters.

Do authorities want to cower CEC and “des-infocenter” with sand?
For more then two hours, our volunteer correspondents report on concentration of military and police vehicles and sand-loaded trucks without license plates (!) near CEC and “des-infocenter” (TV-center)
They also bring there special police troops (spetsnaz) with field kitchens. There are 5 buses filled by men with criminal faces, their plates end with letters XO
Next to the famous from October 23 “headquarters” restaurant “Marokana” there is a concentration of cool foreign cars, inside there is a gang of mafia bosses who are waiting for something.
There is also a serious concentration of forces near the TV center, which many people call “a brehlo-center” (which we can try to translate as “a des-infocenter”. There are military vehicles, trucks with sand and a lot of police jeeps.
An enormous amount of sand and crushed stones suggests that Internal Affair Minister Bilokon’ is planning to make an island on the Dneeper for himself and build there a new palace, after everything is over.

Twelve trucks with “Bars” special unit commandos entered the territory of the CEC. For that moment behind the fence there was already a great number of unidentified civil-dressed individuals. Many of them have on their heads knitted caps. BECAUSE…?
Added:
The “1+1” TV channel has just informed that 150 policemen have entered the CEC building, while the Maidan-Inform correspondent saw 12 trucks with his own eyes. Is it possible that Ukrainian policemen are in such a deplorable physical condition (suffering from obesity) that each truck can bring only 10-12 of them?

Bakhchisaray: Crimean Tatars and youth are denied the vote.
The main problem of voting in Bakhchisaray (Crimea) was a typical issue of absence of voters in the lists. Observers note that the absence was biased towards Crimean Tatars (an ethnic group comprising about 20% of local population) and people under 35. Both groups are mostly Yushchenko voters. Official observers representing Yushchenko estimate number of voters who was denied the vote as hundreds at some stations.
By 4 p.m. 70 persons who was denied during their first visit to the station had managed to get ballot-papers.
Another important issue was the self-styled "guards" standing near the entrance to many stations. They were members of a paramilitary formation, so called "Cossacks". Allegedly their "mission" was approved by police. In some stations the "guards" tried to stand inside, which is a crude violation of low.

At polling station 41 (district 220) roughly 2500 people voted. The main problem is that almost 20% of the ballots do not have the name and signature of the head of commission, and therefore are deemed to be invalid. According to our journalist, the preliminary tally shows that almost 75% of votes are for Yuschenko.

A polling station secretary is sabotaging elections
A polling station #96 secretary is sabotaging elections
This station is located in the National Academy of State Tax Service (whose rector P.Melnyk is a chief of Kyiv regional organization of the Regions Party and a godfather of the child of the former General Prosecutor of Ukraine Sviatoslav Piskin).
The secretary did not put her signature on the cut-off parts of buletins in order to make elections invalid in her station, because, in Irpin Yushenko is 4-5 times higher then Yanukovych.
Now, the represenattives of Presidential Candidates, Territorial Elections Committee chief, journalysts and observers came to the station, but police does not allow them to enter. The committee chief, his assistant and the secretary locked themselves in a separate room and took all the buletins with them.
Note, the police, Committee chief, his assistant and secretary will carry the responsibility according to the Criminal Code
In Kirovograd.
The young people, whose identities left unknown, were shooting during the votes counting by the election commission number 99. The packages of documents with the results of the votes were stolen from the election commissions number 92, 93. Yushchenko was leading in those commissions.
In Kirovograd there are shootings and physical violations in the establishments of the election commissions, where Mr Yushchenko is leading

Voters with bloody hands
Voters with bloody hands
In Vynnytsia at one of the stations as voting was coming to an end, a group of unidentified persons began to congregate in one of the hallways. The militia cannot explain who invited them and how they were organized. Opposition representatives are convinced these people were invited by the head of the local militia in order to repeat a performance of what occurred in Mukachevo.
This signalled the end for a woman who was trying to include herself in the voter list. Of the five members of her family, only her son received an invitation to vote in the election. Of course, his name in the voter list, like many other Ukrainians in this eleciton, was spelled incorrectly. The woman states that a police officer actually slammed his hand in a door.
In anguish:
“When we came with a news reporter to look at the voter list and ask his name – he didn’t want to even talk, but wanted to look at his badge – he demanded his hand and then did the deed.
At this working station in the hallway arrived many unknown people. Most of them refused to explain what they were doing at the station. Those who masked their faces were army personnel. The rest – 20 men – are from a civic youth sports organization. One of them said they were invited there to defend civil peace.
Evhen Umayets:
“We are national people – actually nationalistic, Ukrainians. We are out of politics but we are interested in keeping order in this place, at this time.”
The militia could not explain who invited these young people and what organization they are from.

Voting results in polling districts abroad, which organization “I Know!” has obtained, contradict data given by the Central Election Commission (CEC).
Definitive voting results from 29 polling stations abroad, which civic organization “I Know!” has obtained, contradicts information given by the CEC. According to voting results, which we received at 2:45 November 1, V. Yuschenko received 61.5% of the votes, V. Yanukovich – 31.3%.
As much as we know about results from CIS countries, where the majority of votes are expected to be for V. Yanukovych, more results are coming from countries in Western Europe and North America, and in those areas one can safely predict that the proportion of votes between the two candidates will not change.
In reviewing the information that’s coming from the CEC, it seem incomplete. It also appears that information is coming in too slowly.

Zinchenko: Yushchenko is leading.
Zinchenko: Yushchenko is leading. The gap of 20 per cent is stable.
Recently in Yushchenko’s press center Oleksandr Zinchenko, the chief of his electoral headquarters, woke the sleeping journalists with a new figure of 49,9 per cent. According to parallel calculations, it is the number of votes received by Yushchenko.
According to Zinchenko, Yanukovych received around 30 per cent of votes. “The number of voting records processed is changing, but the gap of 20 per cent continues to be stable”, - said the chief of Yushchenko’s electoral campaign.
The divergence between the results of parallel counting and “official calculations” from Kivalov’s office Zinchenko explained by the fact that the CEC still is reluctant to count the votes of Western and Central regions [are they waiting for the moment when all polling station will be devastated and all ballots stolen? - M.-I.].
Kivalov’s office persists in counting only the votes from East and from some Southern regions where Yanukovych is prevalently leading.

The central headquarters of presidential candidate Viktor Yanukovych is planning to hold talks with presidential candidates Oleksandr Moroz and Petro Symonenko before the second round, Serhij Tihipko, the chief of the headquarters, reported.
According to his words, the main issue of the talks is supposed to be the question of political reform.
“Everybody understands that the fighting will be concentrated on the left wing votes. That’s what we are going to talk about” – S. Tihipko pointed out.
On this poing the press center of Yanukovych’s headquarters took time-out till the 11 a.m.
Previously Yanukovych’s headquarters claimed that, according to the results of their “parallel counting of votes”, Yanukovych is leading. Maidan-Inform has already reported that various representatives of Yanukovych’s headquarters communicated contradictory information as to the fact if the parallel counting is being conducted or not. Maybe, by 11 o’clock everybody will receive the proper instructions.

Halloween in Sumy is going on
Halloween in Sumy is going on
A member of electoral commission №97 (electoral district 160) reports that Sumy is overwhelmed with uncontrolled violations.The counting of votes was completed in the polling stations only at 4 a.m.
In the meantime, the head of the commission continuously sabotaged the work of the commission.
When the polling records were taken to the territorial electoral commission, the police prevented the observers to accompany them. Thus only the heads of commissions managed to reach the territorial commissions, whereas the content of the records were previously examined by policemen, the hotline of the Civic Initiative “Znayu!” reports.
During the counting of votes, the polling station located in the school №10 was demolished by gangsters wearing masks.
The people are shocked because the official information announces Yanukovych’s advantage, while in most polling station Yushchenko is clearly leading.
The district electoral commission is encircled by OMON commandos that send away even the heads of commissions, after they have delivered the ballots.

Head Election Commission Allowed Voters With Errors In Registrat
Head Election Commission Allowed Voters With Errors In Registration Lists To VoteTerritorial Election Commission for district №160 (Sumy city) allowed its commission divisions to distribute ballots to voters who had small errors in the voter list – incomplete names, incorrect patronymics, date of birth. However, all other information was correct.
As of 17:00 the Commission received complaints from 1100 voters. Of these 510 – incorrectly spelled surname, name, and patronymic, 510 – were missing from the voter list, other – deceased, for whom relatives came complain that the name was included.
People at the Territorial Election Commission had to endure three-hour long waiting lines. There was even an old woman born in 1919, who had to fight to have her name added to the voter registration list. It is known that a lot former residents of Sumy were registered to vote who have not lived in Sumy for many years. For example, an invitation to vote was sent to a woman born in 1978, though she has not been in Sumy for ten years and is now a citizen of Russia.
Reference. This morning hundreds of people, who either couldn’t find their names in the voter lists, or their given information was incorrect, went to the territorial election commission, demanding to be added to the lists. Earlier the head of the election commission for district №160 Valentyna CPUDKO, leading a press conference, affirmed that “Sumy is 100% ready for the election.” At that time she did not conceal there were “some unforeseen mistakes in the voter lists,” which in several areas, according to her words, affect almost half of all voters. In Valentyna SPUDKO’s opinion, this is because the voter lists were compiled by housing organizations with no appropriate qualifications. October 20 a representative of Viktor Yuschenko at election district №160 Evhen SYDENKO appealed to the public prosecutor of Sumy oblast to open a criminal investigation against municipal head of Sumy City Volodymyr OMELCHENKO because of untrustworthy voter lists for Sumy.

O.Zinchenko – We are proud with our people
O.Zinchenko – We are proud with our peopleKuchma, Yanukovych, Medvedchuk, just a couple of days ago were trying to persuade themselves that there are keeping the power in their hands, but they just lost the feeling of the country they live in- said Zinchenko to journalists
According to him, they give too much trust to Russian polittechnologyst Gleb Pavlovski and his fund “Obshestvennoie mnenie”- “public opinion”. If you’d like to know the scenario of possible provocations and falcifications of the elections, go to their web cite. From 11 am, they discuss provocations that later started to happen on the polling stations between 4 and 6 pm. By the way, Pavlovski is the only one, whose exit poll results give preference to Yanukovych, everyone else says opposite – said Zinchenko
By Zinchenko words, the current authorities are losing exclusively due to their narrow-mindedness and stupidity. After the elections, they will have to carry responsibility for falsifications and their other sins. To the previously mentioned names, Zinchenko added name of the Minister of Internal Affairs M.Bilokon.
This is a signal that the people have changed. Now, the situation with elections in Ukraine may seriously influence further development of democracy in Russia and in Belarus, and on whole Post-Soviet space. We are proud with our people

The Central Electoral Committee reports that, as of 14.00, twenty three per cent of voters entitled to vote have voted. As reported by the Maidan activists present now at electoral commissions, this figure in fact reaches already 50 per cent.
By the activity of voters (again, as reported by Kivalov’s office), Zhytomyr, Kirovohrad and Luhansk regions are leading.
As reported by a Russian radio station “Echo of Moscow”, the first results of exit polls are available. According to Ivan Starikov, international affairs analyst, Viktor Yushchenko is leading with a considerable break away, “Yanukovych is considerably behind, the third place in the race belongs to Moroz, the fourth place is Symonenko’s”.
After that the authorities raised their activity – whole bundles of illegal ballot papers are inserted into the boxes, opposition observers are not allowed to exercise monitoring, international observers are beaten and driven out of the polling stations, electricity and running water are being cut off.
Donetsk and Kharkiv regions report the greatest number of violations. It should be noted that the regional headquarters of Nasha Ukraina bloc are working efficiently enough making official records of violations or having these violations registered on video tapes. In many cases they simply block the violations.
Because of a huge number of errors in the voting lists, spontaneous rallies are going on.
In Kiev some preparations for provocations are being observed – the number of policemen has increased, special units and military equipment cars, trucks without registration numbers loaded with loose materials are being concentrated near the CEC. That means that our showmen from special police units, uniformed and not, are going to please the audience of the pro-government TV channels with new horror shows.
In spite of these threats, Kyiv is overwhelmed with something very close to euphoria. People are serene and sure of their victory. Political news is optimistic, too – Yulia Tymoshenko has just conducted successful talks on the formation of new parliamentary majority, whereas in Boryspil the representatives of pro-government parties are hurriedly preparing to leave.
The interest of ordinary Ukrainians in the progress of voting is terrifying – the “Razom” site has crashed because of overload.
Gangsters do not leave objective mass media without their attention – the opposition media are being continuously assaulted by crooks, the pressmen are being thrown out of the polling stations.
A lot of persons with absentee voter cards are voting in Kyiv, while many Kyiv inhabitants did not find their names in the lists. At the same time people with absentee cards from West and Center of Ukraine are not allowed to vote in Donetsk.
According to current information, Yushchenko is leading even in case of mass falsifications. But it is too early to rejoice – more and more special police units and groups of provokers are being drawn up to Kyiv.

According to monitoring results of districts that are located in СІЗО, the following violations took place (in Dnipropetrovsk oblast):
1. Territorial Election Commission is obligated by law to inform that imprisoned citizens were excluded from voter lists – this was not done, and they continue to be included in the lists.
2. There are problems accessing the voter lists by people who were in solitary confinement – they did not have the opportunity to review their information.
3. Premises for voting did not conform to the law. СІЗО №3 in the city of Dnipropetrovsk – this was not the only place, since voting took place in nine other small rooms in each of the bodies of СІЗО. There were problems with privacy – voting took place in half-open booths. Monitors could not adequately do their job, since they needed to be present in nine places at the same time.
Informing voters: members of the election commission did not have access to meet with the voters – there was a special announcement (in the words of the heads), that on the day of the elections no representatives of the presidential candidates cannot visit imprisoned voters.

Next to the famous from October 23 “headquarters” restaurant “Marokana” there is a concentration of cool foreign cars, inside there is a gang of mafia bosses who are waiting for something.
There is also a serious concentration of forces near the TV center, which many people call “a brehlo-center” (which we can try to translate as “a des-infocenter”. There are military vehicles, trucks with sand and a lot of police jeeps.

Bakhchisaray: Crimean Tatars and youth are denied the vote.The main problem of voting in Bakhchisaray (Crimea) was a typical issue of absence of voters in the lists. Observers note that the absence was biased towards Crimean Tatars (an ethnic group comprising about 20% of local population) and people under 35. Both groups are mostly Yushchenko voters. Official observers representing Yushchenko estimate number of voters who was denied the vote as hundreds at some stations.
By 4 p.m. 70 persons who was denied during their first visit to the station had managed to get ballot-papers.
Another important issue was the self-styled "guards" standing near the entrance to many stations. They were members of a paramilitary formation, so called "Cossacks". Allegedly their "mission" was approved by police. In some stations the "guards" tried to stand inside, which is a crude violation of low.

Until 1:30am about fifteen voters stood at polling station 64 (district 214) and detained the head of the election commission and did not let him go. Fearing election fraud, they demanded a copy of the official tally, which the head of the commission refused to show them. Two milita officers, who were supposed to take the tally record to the territorial election commission, were unable to do anything. The voters finally got their wish – they were shown the original record results and left with a copy of the protocol: 1777 people voted, 1080 for Yuschenko, and 290 for Yanukovich.

Voters with bloody hands
Voters with bloody handsIn Vynnytsia at one of the stations as voting was coming to an end, a group of unidentified persons began to congregate in one of the hallways. The militia cannot explain who invited them and how they were organized. Opposition representatives are convinced these people were invited by the head of the local militia in order to repeat a performance of what occurred in Mukachevo.
This signalled the end for a woman who was trying to include herself in the voter list. Of the five members of her family, only her son received an invitation to vote in the election. Of course, his name in the voter list, like many other Ukrainians in this eleciton, was spelled incorrectly. The woman states that a police officer actually slammed his hand in a door.
In anguish:
“When we came with a news reporter to look at the voter list and ask his name – he didn’t want to even talk, but wanted to look at his badge – he demanded his hand and then did the deed.
At this working station in the hallway arrived many unknown people. Most of them refused to explain what they were doing at the station. Those who masked their faces were army personnel. The rest – 20 men – are from a civic youth sports organization. One of them said they were invited there to defend civil peace.
Evhen Umayets:
“We are national people – actually nationalistic, Ukrainians. We are out of politics but we are interested in keeping order in this place, at this time.”
The militia could not explain who invited these young people and what organization they are from.

Voting results in polling districts abroad, which organization “I Know!” has obtained, contradict data given by the Central Election Commission (CEC).
Definitive voting results from 29 polling stations abroad, which civic organization “I Know!” has obtained, contradicts information given by the CEC. According to voting results, which we received at 2:45 November 1, V. Yuschenko received 61.5% of the votes, V. Yanukovich – 31.3%.
As much as we know about results from CIS countries, where the majority of votes are expected to be for V. Yanukovych, more results are coming from countries in Western Europe and North America, and in those areas one can safely predict that the proportion of votes between the two candidates will not change.
In reviewing the information that’s coming from the CEC, it seem incomplete. It also appears that information is coming in too slowly.

Zinchenko: Yushchenko is leading.
Zinchenko: Yushchenko is leading. The gap of 20 per cent is stable.Recently in Yushchenko’s press center Oleksandr Zinchenko, the chief of his electoral headquarters, woke the sleeping journalists with a new figure of 49,9 per cent. According to parallel calculations, it is the number of votes received by Yushchenko.
According to Zinchenko, Yanukovych received around 30 per cent of votes. “The number of voting records processed is changing, but the gap of 20 per cent continues to be stable”, - said the chief of Yushchenko’s electoral campaign.
The divergence between the results of parallel counting and “official calculations” from Kivalov’s office Zinchenko explained by the fact that the CEC still is reluctant to count the votes of Western and Central regions [are they waiting for the moment when all polling station will be devastated and all ballots stolen? - M.-I.].
Kivalov’s office persists in counting only the votes from East and from some Southern regions where Yanukovych is prevalently leading.

In the second round Yanukovych will try to catch up the votes of the leftistsThe central headquarters of presidential candidate Viktor Yanukovych is planning to hold talks with presidential candidates Oleksandr Moroz and Petro Symonenko before the second round, Serhij Tihipko, the chief of the headquarters, reported.
According to his words, the main issue of the talks is supposed to be the question of political reform.
“Everybody understands that the fighting will be concentrated on the left wing votes. That’s what we are going to talk about” – S. Tihipko pointed out.
On this poing the press center of Yanukovych’s headquarters took time-out till the 11 a.m.
Previously Yanukovych’s headquarters claimed that, according to the results of their “parallel counting of votes”, Yanukovych is leading. Maidan-Inform has already reported that various representatives of Yanukovych’s headquarters communicated contradictory information as to the fact if the parallel counting is being conducted or not. Maybe, by 11 o’clock everybody will receive the proper instructions.

Halloween in Sumy is going on
Halloween in Sumy is going onA member of electoral commission №97 (electoral district 160) reports that Sumy is overwhelmed with uncontrolled violations.The counting of votes was completed in the polling stations only at 4 a.m.
In the meantime, the head of the commission continuously sabotaged the work of the commission.
When the polling records were taken to the territorial electoral commission, the police prevented the observers to accompany them. Thus only the heads of commissions managed to reach the territorial commissions, whereas the content of the records were previously examined by policemen, the hotline of the Civic Initiative “Znayu!” reports.
During the counting of votes, the polling station located in the school №10 was demolished by gangsters wearing masks.
The people are shocked because the official information announces Yanukovych’s advantage, while in most polling station Yushchenko is clearly leading.
The district electoral commission is encircled by OMON commandos that send away even the heads of commissions, after they have delivered the ballots.
