Presidential Election: Seperation between 2nd and 3rd


Firstly, that Tymoshenko is now building on her hard-core base of support which will steadily grow during the three month election campaign. This is in contrast to Yatseniuk’s soft-core base of support which is leading to the opposite tendency of a decline in his support. Much of his soft-core support came not from support for Yatseniuk but from disillusionment with establishment politicians.



Secondly, Yatseniuk can no longer believe that his third place position in round one is impregnable. Anatoliy Grytsenko and Serhiy Tyhipko are likely to mount strong challenges to Yatseniuk for the third and fourth place places in round one of the elections while Viktor Yushchenko will take votes from Yatseniuk in Galicia.



Taras Kuzio commenting on a recent poll that shows Tymoshenko's lead over Yatsenyiuk growing. While the front runner is still Yanukovych, these two had been battling for second place and the chance to get into the second round of the presidential election. Tymoshenko strong political machine is moving into campaign mode, while Yatseniuk seems to be fading. Perhaps, inter alia, voters are searching for a viable candidate that could beat Yanukovych and no longer see him as that candidate.
