The territorial electoral commissions have appointed for Sunday, November 22, a repeat of the elections for the heads of urban territorial communities, where, according to the results of the first round, none of the candidates obtained 50% + 1 vote.
The polling stations opened at 08:00 and will operate until 20:00. According to data previously released by the CCA, the re-election on November 22 will be held in 1,649 polling stations, in which approximately 2 million 754 thousand voters may participate.
The second round was supposed to take place in 12 cities, but in Kryvyi Rih it was postponed to December 6. This is due to the refusal of the current mayor and leader of the first round, Yury Vilkul, to continue participating in the electoral campaign. The mayor referred to the deterioration of the state of health. Thus, the candidates for the second and third place will participate in the second round: Dmitry Shevchik and Konstantin Pavlov.
