Latest polls show Klitschko far ahead in Kyiv mayoral race

Latest polls show Klitschko far ahead in Kyiv mayoral race

14 August 2020

Kyiv mayor Vitaliy Klitschko would win the capital’s
upcoming mayoral election if it were held now, according to a new survey.
Almost 36% of all voters, and over 41% of voters whose minds are made up would
vote for the incumbent, accorsding to survey data released by Razumkov Centre.

 

While far behind Klitschko, second place is contested
between Andriy Palchevskyi and Opposition Platform – For Life candidate
Alexander Popov with 7.8% and 7.3% of all voters, respectively. Irina
Vereshchyk of the Servant of the People party of President Zelensky and Voice
party candidate Serhyi Prytula round out the top five with 5.5% and 4.9% of all
voters in Kyiv, respectively.

 

James Hydzik: Mayor
Klitschko continues to poll well, and though anything can happen between now
and election day, the gap between first and second places indicates that it
would take a major catastrophe to change the current situation. Issues that
would normally be under a microscope have taken a back seat to coronavirus
concerns, and with the Cabinet of Ministers taking the reins and being
ultimately responsible for determining quarantine levels, Klitschko’s rating is
unlikely to be affected by unpopular decisions.
