5 Kyiv Mayoral Candidates Withdraw From Race (13:27, Wednesday, May 21, 2008)

Ukrainian News Agency

The Kyiv city territorial elections commission has withdrawn registration from five mayoral candidates.

Ukrainian News learned this from commission chair Halyna Bilyk, who referred to the May 20 decision by the territorial elections commission.

Particularly, the commission removed from the registration list self-nominees Volodymyr Hoshovskyi, Yurii Kliuchynskyi, Bohdan Kovtoniuk, Anatolii Vasylenko and Kostiantyn Zhol.

The move was prompted by the candidates' wish to withdraw from the race, Bilyk says.

In this connection, ballot papers will bear special stamps in front of their names.

May 19, Bilyk added, was the deadline for submission of withdrawal appeals by the mayoral candidates, political parties and blocs.

She also said the withdrawal appeal of self-nominee Viktor Mudryk came after the deadline and thus cannot be satisfied.

Thus, the number of mayoral candidates fell by five to 70, which now is the final number.

The number of parties and blocs to compete in the city council election race remained unchanged - 37.

As Ukrainian News reported, the Kyiv city territorial election commission produced 4,316,616 ballot papers for the elections of the city mayor and the city council on May 25.

The amount of the ballot papers corresponds to the number of voters, and included 2% of reserve ballots.

The size of ballot papers for mayoral elections in Kyiv is 100x19.5 centimeters and the size of ballot papers for the elections to the city council will be 81x19.5 centimeters.

The budget of the production of all of ballot papers is about UAH 2.245 million.
