Thus, at the moment he became the eleventh potential candidate. A small remark. Eleven — it\’s the number of candidates have already applied for registration in the electoral commission. All in all, their desire to take part in the elections on September 8 said 17 people. 14 of them — from the electoral associations. The other three — self-nominated. — 14 electoral associations notified the Election Commission to hold conferences on the nomination of candidates, — Mykola Kichatov, secretary of the city election commission. — Of these, the majority of such events are held. The others still have time to conduct them, to determine the nominee and to apply for registration with the Election Commission. Submission deadline ends on July 29 at 18 pm local time.

This preparation for winter, and repair of roads, houses adjoining areas, the construction of sports facilities — things that can not be left. The city must live and grow, despite the election.
