Davydovych emphasized that the Central Election Commission is currently processing the data received by the Central Election Commission. He hopes that by approximately 14:00 on Tuesday, data from 96% of polling stations will be made public.
Davydovych named the imperfection of the formation of voter lists as the main problem during the election. He noted that on voting day, courts considered more than 42,000 complaints from Ukrainian voters and positive decisions were made on them. In total, more than 37 million citizens were included in the voter lists. Davydovych expressed hope that by the second round of the election the situation with the lists would improve somewhat. According to Davydovych, the CEC will try to fully resolve this problem by the parliamentary elections in Ukraine in 2006.
For his part, speaking in the session hall, member of the "Our Ukraine" faction, authorized representative of presidential candidate Viktor Yushchenko, Yuriy Klyuchkovskyi, reported that according to information available to the "Our Ukraine" bloc, data from 98.06% of polling stations had already been received by the CEC. He noted that according to the processed data, 11 million 387 thousand citizens voted for Yushchenko, and 11 million 353 thousand voters voted for Yanukovych. He addressed a question to the deputy head of the CEC as to why this information had not yet been made public on the CEC website.
For his part, Davydovych noted that he currently has no information about the receipt of such an amount of data from polling stations in Ukraine.
