The Verkhovna Rada is looking for ways to optimize the voting system to prevent the facts of impersonal voting. This was announced by Chairperson of The Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine Dmytro Razumkov during the meeting with Mayor of Kyiv Vitali Klitschko.

"We are currently looking for ways to optimize the voting system in the Parliament to completely prevent impersonal voting in the future, and are exploring different technology options, including fingerprinting," noted the Speaker of the Parliament.

During the meeting, Dmytro Razumkov exchanged views and experience with Vitali Klitschko on technological processes and developments in overcoming button-pressing and tested the operation of the 'Rada-4' system.

"Voting takes place only when you press two buttons at the same time and wait until the end of voting. Otherwise, the vote will not be counted. This makes it impossible to vote for another deputy," said Mayor of Kyiv Vitali Klitschko.

According to Dmytro Razumkov, in the Parliament of the IX convocation there are few cases of button-pressing, but it is important to get rid of it.
