Protesters demand calculation of parliamentary election outcome based on protocols with wet stamps
Some 100 people, including candidates to the parliament from the opposition, are now conducting a picket near the building of the Ukrainian presidential administration in central Kyiv demanding that the authorities and the Central Elections Commission determine the outcome of the recent parliamentary elections based on protocols with wet stamps.
"We are not ready to fulfill the Central Elections Commission's decision yet," Viktor Romaniuk, a candidate to the parliament from District No. 94 (Obukhiv, Kyiv region), said, adding that 30,000 votes, which is one-third of the votes, "have been ignored."
"The authorities are saying the elections were fair and democratic, but it's not true," Romaniuk said.
Romaniuk also said the candidates seeking seats in the parliament in the problem districts had forwarded their demands to the president of Ukraine several days ago, but there has still not been any reaction from them.
The parliamentary elections were held in Ukraine on October 28.
