"Ukraine is game to you?" No, but it just elected in a landslide an actual comedian with no political experience as president


Recommended Posts

Ukrainian comedian Volodymyr Zelensky has won a run-off election to become the country's next president, exit polls suggest.

The 41-year-old is best known for starring in a political satirical drama in which his character accidentally becomes Ukrainian president.

It was also very not close. 

 

Green is the portion of votes the comedian got. Red is Poroshenko, the current president:

Basically, everything in the west is a Poroshenko stronghold. But he lost all those areas by BIG margins. A lot of these regions are big surprises for him to lose. 

 

I really should check out Zelenzkiy's show. Maybe it will be insight into how he governs!
