Ukrainian Comedian Pulls Ahead in Presidential Election

Ukrainian comedian Vladimir Zelenskiy, who plays the president of Ukraine on a TV show, appears to have pulled into the lead in the actual presidential election contest.

The latest poll shows Zelenskiy with a commanding nine-point lead over incumbent President Petro Poroshenko, who in turn leads the former favorite in the race, former Prime Minister Yulia Tymoshenko, by two points.

 

The Associated Press on Thursday cited a Kiev International Institute of Sociology poll that put the race at Zelenskiy 27 percent, Poroshenko 18 percent, and Tymoshenko 16 percent, with a 3.3 percent margin of error. The election will be held on March 31.

 

 

This was not the first poll to show Zelenskiy as a serious contender in the race and possibly the frontrunner. The 41-year-old Jewish comedian has 20 years of experience in stand-up comedy but none whatsoever in elective politics. He is not running as a joke; he presents himself as an outsider with a โ€œfresh faceโ€ who wants to clean up government corruption, somewhat in the mold of recently-elected President Nayib Bukele of El Salvador. Some observers have also compared his anti-establishment style and appeal to voters disgusted by the current system with Donald Trump.

 

The TV show that propelled Zelenskiy to the height of fame is called โ€œServant of the People,โ€ and has been running since 2015. Zelenskiyโ€™s character is a high-school teacher who unexpectedly sweeps into the presidency of Ukraine after he goes on a tirade against corruption in class and one of his students posts it online.

Protesters gather outside Trump hotel in New York over emergency declaration

A local ABC affiliate streamed the protests live, showing dozens of people sitting in the street and blocking traffic outside the hotel.

 

In the video, the protesters can be heard chanting "shame" and "this emergency is fake" as New York Police Department [NYPD] officers stand nearby. Some protesters are seen wearing "abolish ICE" vests, referring to U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, and carrying "No Wall No Way" signs.
