Election Calendar: What's left

From the a BBC article on the election calendar, which I translated and posted here. Below are the activities going on this month and next month. While the election is in a week, the results are not announced until the 27 January. If the polls hold, then there will a second round 7  February. With the more hectic/chaotic part of the campaigning  probably occurring during this period. If a second round is scheduled, then a new president wouldn't be in office until March. 







  • 2 January-Ban Circulation of information on public opinion polls 


  • 9 January-Election Notice-Time and Place for Voters


  • 16 January-Suspend Disbursement of Election Funds to Candidates


  • 17th January-Election


  • 27 January-Presidential Results


  • 30 January-Report on Presidential Election


  • 1 February-Present information on Candidate Election Fund Accounts


  • 4 February-Publish financial date


  • 26 February-Presidential Inauguration











If no candidate gets 50% of the vote, then there is a run off between the top two candidates. In this case it would be Yulia Tymoshenko and Viktor Yanukovych. 













  • Second Round





    • 7 February- Date of 2nd Round of Presidential Election





      • The third Sunday after the presidential election
