A resident of Ukraine tried to vote with a passport issued in the USSR in the second round of elections for the mayor of Krivoy Rog, the hometown of the President of the country Vladimir Zelensky . RIA Novosti informs about this on Sunday, December 6, citing the civil network “Opor” .
According to public figures, the elderly woman said that in all previous elections she had voted using the passport of the Soviet Union. However, the members of the precinct election commission did not give her a ballot paper. In turn, the policeman explained to the woman the reasons for the refusal.
The second round of the mayoral elections in Krivoy Rog was supposed to take place on November 22. But on November 17, the current mayor of the city Yuri Vilkul announced his decision to refuse to participate in him due to health conditions. As a result, two candidates made it to the second round. They began to present the “Opposition Platform – For Life” Konstantin Pavlov and the pro-presidential party ” Servant of the people “Dmitry Shevchik.
