Exit poll results released after voting stations closed showed sitcom star Volodymyr Zelenskiy receiving an extraordinary 73.2% to president Petro Poroshenko's 25.3%. Even before the release of any official returns in the two-man runoff, Poroshenko accepted defeat, but told his supporters that although he may be leaving the presidential office, he would not retire from politics.
