Viktor Yanukovich’s team tries new methods for the election campaign. In particular, the initiator of the changes is Viktor Yankovych junior - the son of the opposition leader and the leader of the youth wing of the Party of the Regions. He has initiated txt poll – it is actually a kind of referendum. The text message is to propose respondents to answer the question "Are you for making Russian the state language?"
Each response will cost between 15 and 34 kopiyka ($1=UAH 5.05 by NBU). Yanukovych junior said that any kopiyka would get to his pocket. He vowed to publish the results by March 26 – the date of parliamentary elections.
