Local Elections In Ukraine

Local government in Ukraine is guaranteed by state law and the ability of the territorial community (residents of a village or a voluntary association of rural community residents of several villages, towns, cities) independently (or under the responsibility of agencies and local government officials) to solve local issues within the Constitution and laws of Ukraine.

Local governments are territorial communities of villages, cities (directly and through villages), townships, city councils and their executive bodies and district and regional councils (which represent the interests of communities of villages, towns and cities).

Famous quotes containing the words local and/or elections:

    Wags try to invent new stories to tell about the legislature, and end by telling the old one about the senator who explained his unaccustomed possession of a large roll of bills by saying that someone pushed it over the transom while he slept. The expression “It came over the transom,” to explain any unusual good fortune, is part of local folklore.
    —For the State of Montana, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)

    Apparently, a democracy is a place where numerous elections are held at great cost without issues and with interchangeable candidates.
    Gore Vidal (b. 1925)
