The margin of systematic error (e.g.: respondents providing misleading information) may reach +/- 3%. The Exit Poll was conducted by three firms: the Kyiv International Institute of Sociology, Socis, and Social Monitoring. Each firm polled 6,000 people as they exited 850 polling stations, in 480 cities and villages. These results were collected and compiled by the Kyiv International Institute of Sociology. The Exit Poll was coordinated by Democratic Initiatives Foundation. Iryna Bekeshkina is the Project Manager. Support for the Exit Poll was provided by the National Public Monitoring Committee and the International Renaissance Foundation. Financial support was provided by International Renaissance Foundation, the embassies of Great Britain, Italy, USA and Sweden. Detailed analysis of the exit poll results, including socio-demographic data, will be made available in one week. All of the Exit Poll findings will be made available by Democratic Initiatives Foundation on the Internet: http://www.exitpoll.org.ua and http://www.dif.org.ua , by the National Public Monitoring Committee: http://www.monitor.org.ua , and by the Committee of Voters of Ukraine: http://www.polit.org.ua. The March 31, 2002 Exit Poll is the fourth exit poll conducted in Ukraine. Exit polls were conducted during the March 1998 parliamentary elections, and the two rounds of the 1999 presidential elections. The previous polls, which were organized by Democratic Initiatives Foundation, were conducted successfully and produced highly accurate results. Exit polls also provide a public control mechanism over the vote-tallying process. The poll was conducted independently from any and all electoral political parties and blocs.
