Tymoshenko, Yanukovych Lead Ukrainian Presidential Poll

A recent Ukrainian public opinion poll conducted by the Raumkov Center indicates former Prime Minister Viktor Yanukovych and current PM Yulia Tymoshenko have the best chance of winning Ukraine’s next presidential election.

The poll results are:

Viktor Yanukovych (leader of Party of Regions) - 17.1%
Yulia Tymoshenko (current Prime Minister) - 15.7%
Arseniy Yatseniuk (former Parliament Speaker) - 11.8%
Volodymyr Lytvyn (current Parliament Speaker) - 5.2%
Petro Symonenko (leader of Communist Party) - 4.2%
Viktor Yushchenko (current President) - 3.5%

The poll was conducted in 129 locations and included 2,012 respondents. The margin of error does not exceed 2.3%.

The results are really not much of a surprise. If anything, this could be a very interesting election
