Raw results here.

Poroshenko’s best performance: Canada, where Chrystia Freeland lives – 74%; USA – 72%, UK – 70%. Diaspora is even more svidomy than Lvov, but they are hardly representative. While they are good commenters, this is something to bear in mind wrt AP and Mr. Hack.

Even in Poland & Czechia more Ukrainian Gastarbeiters voted for Zelensky than for Poroshenko. I had an explanation as to why in my post on Ukraine’s (near) unique status as a place where better educated people lean more nationalist (after adjusting for geographic patterns, age structure, etc).

So successful American-Ukrainian professionals vote for Poroshenko through the same underlying mechanisms that Russian-Americans tend to favor liberal anti-Putin candidates, or why American year abroad students in Europe feel ashamed about Trump. While more redneck type Ukrainians toiling on construction sites in Poland don’t care as much.
