Opposition leader calls for electoral changes

Ukrainian opposition leader Viktor Yushchenko kicked off campaigning for the December 26 presidential rerun with a call for quick passage of anti-fraud legislation as supporters began signing up en masse to monitor balloting and ensure a fair vote.

“We are witnessing a struggle between forces of good and forces of evil,” Yushchenko told throngs of chanting supporters who gathered at Kiev’s main square, waving his campaign’s orange flags.
