In Washington, the Ukrainians have already come to the polling station to vote.
“Ukrainians in America have started voting in the presidential elections in Ukraine. An overseas polling station has opened in the city of Washington 900089,” the Ukrainian Embassy in the United States announced in Facebook, adding photos of Victor and Polina, who became the first voters in this polling station.
The work of the 900091 site in the city of San Francisco also began with the anthem of Ukraine.
The first to vote on this site were Vladimir and Olga.
And after them came other voters.
Let us note that voting in the Ukrainian presidential elections in the United States will last from 8:00 to 20:00, but with a 7-hour difference from Kiev. People are expected to travel from 19 states to vote. In particular, citizens of Ukraine from nine American states have the right to vote at a polling station in New York. A total of four polling stations will operate in the United States. In addition to Washington and New York, also in Chicago and San Francisco. All of them work in the premises of Ukrainian diplomatic institutions - the embassy and consular departments.
In some cases, Ukrainian voters will have to cover long distances. For example, those who live in Alaska are attached to a polling station in Washington. In addition, Ukrainians living in Antigua and Barbuda, as well as Trinidad and Tobago can vote in the US capital. Ukrainian citizens from Hawaii will have to travel too far if they want to take part in the voting. Their site is located in San Francisco.
