Yuschenko and Yanukovych stood in a runoff election Nov. 21, with Yanukovych being declared the winner by about 3 percentage points. According to the U.K. Guardian, Yanukovych’s campaign released an exit poll showing himself to be ahead by 1.4 percent, with a margin of error of 5 percent points. However, Yuschenko’s exit polls, financed by Western embassies, showed him to be ahead by 11 points, and he quickly declared the election results to be invalid.

The exit polls were taken in Kiev and the West, which is clearly Yuschenko territory. It's sort like taking exit polls to see of Bush or Kerry won in Boston.
