On 28 October, observers could receive the copy of a protocol with a wet stamp on results of vote counting. Representative of the candidate Ruslan Solvar (the UDAR party) compared their copies of protocols with the official data on site of the CEC, and noticed a certain discrepancy in polling stations #321393, #321395 and #321394
In particular, voting results on the PEC #321393 are considerably different from those on the site of the CEC. According to the protocol, the UDAR party has taken the 1st place by receiving 40% of votes, and 12,7% of voters supported the Party of Regions. Yet, according to the data of the CEC, the UDAR paty received only 20%, and the PR – 32%. How similar "shift" of 20% could take place – is unknown.
