Exit polls say that Yushchenko is winning the election, by 15-20 percentage points. Finally ! As Yelena, Igor, and Valentina have become fond of saying, though, it is one thing to win the vote; it is another to become president. Yanukovych has not yet conceded and has given no hint as to what he will do next. We can only hope that there will be a concession and an orderly transfer of power. We are afraid this will not happen, however.
