Here's part of a letter from a friend in Kyiv, from November 17th:
...nas seychas predvybornaya bol'ba nakalen. Narod neehlektrizovan, t.k. vlast' vybory sfabrikovala, postaviv server v administratsii prezidenta i ottuda upravlyala TsVK. Predstavlyaesh'? Strana skazochnykh geroev.

"...the pre-election fight has heated up. The people are not electrified, since the government has fabricated the elections, after placing the server in the president's administration and from there they govern the TsVK (??). Can you imagine? A nation of fairytale heroes."

I'm not sure what it means, but I think TsVK may be the central election commission (or committee).

I send an application to become an observer during these elections, but unfortunately they didn't take me.

Probably you are right.

It's a shame that US government and generally "the West" don't react strongly.
rasPutin is doing whatever he want.

Sounds like it is possible your friend is hinting that both sides of the election was rigged. Perhaps you should email him back and ask for clarification.
