Tymoshenko is in the lead in Ukraine, the Opposition bloc is in the southeast
Currently, the leader in the rating of sympathy for politicians in Ukraine is Yulia Tymoshenko. However, in the South-East, the majority of votes would still be collected by former members of the Party of Regions from the Opposition Bloc. Sociologist Evgeny Kopatko stated this on the Rossiya 1 TV channel.

“Yulia Vladimirovna is still the favorite. On the other hand, if elections are held without forceful suppression and in the presence of information capabilities, ["Oppoblok"] would have won in the south-east of Ukraine. Moreover, by a large margin. Pyotr Alekseevich still has a fairly good electoral resource. There are also a number of political projects,” Kopatko said.
At the same time, he noted that the demand for elections in Ukrainian society is not very large, the PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
“Voting will be sluggish. The voter's trust in the process itself has been lost. The electoral field is scattered. If earlier there was consolidation: Yushchenko-Yanukovych, Yanukovych-Tymoshenko. Serious regionalization has now occurred. In the east of Ukraine, the overwhelming majority of citizens feel unwell, while in the west, 40% feel well. This has never happened before,” Kopatko said.
Political scientist Vladimir Kornilov, who was present in the studio, noted that now in Ukraine no one is fighting for votes, because they are not going to count the election results honestly. Maidan political forces are fighting for control of the battalions, which, in turn, will control the results of the count.
