You're reading: Election Commission source: Information on manual vote counting after Ukraine polls wrong

A Central Election Commission source denied allegations in the media on Saturday that cited Ukraine's prosecutor general as saying votes would be counted manually after Sunday's parliamentary elections because of a supposed failure of the electronic counting system. 

“There has been no order about manual counting. It’s fake information,” the source told.

Media reports had said with reference to Prosecutor General Vitaliy Yarema’s personal Web site that the electronic system for counting parliamentary election votes was out of order and so the votes would be counted manually.
