something to think about

the consensus seems to be that the ukrainian election was rigged. official results show viktor yanukovych with a 3% lead over challenger viktor yushchenko, but people both outside and inside the ukraine believe there is evidence the government cheated to make their man win.

what was this evidence exactly? the fact that the "exit polls had put yushchenko clearly ahead." internationally, exit polls are commonly used to check official election results for signs of fraud.
