KIEV, October 26 (RIA Novosti) - No violations that could have influenced the outcome of Ukraine's parliamentary elections have been registered during the voting, the Central Election Commission's head Mykhailo Ohendovsky said Sunday.
"It is important to note that the voting in the snap parliamentary election in Ukraine has run off without grave violations, at least the Central Election Commission registered no reports of violations that could have influenced the outcome of the voting," Ohendovsky told journalists.
He stressed that voting results for the candidates elected by party lists and from single-candidate constituencies will be announced on Wednesday.
Ohendovsky added that the Commission will act on any delays that may come up when voting results are entered in the electronic counting system "Elections". A day before the elections, it was reported that the system had been malfunctioning, an allegation dismissed by the Commission as a sham.
The country's Interior Ministry said on its website earlier that it had registered some 330 reports of suspected vote rigging and other violations by 06:00 p.m. local time (16:00 GMT).
A snap parliamentary election wrapped up Sunday in Ukraine. Only 423 deputies are expected to be elected, according to the Central Election Commission, which has ruled out any voting in 12 districts of Crimea as well as 15 districts in the Donetsk and Luhansk regions. The electoral threshold has been set at five percent.
