A TV president might become Ukraine's next real president

A comedian who plays the role of president on a Ukrainian TV show will likely face a runoff election against the current president after exit polls show him getting more votes than the incumbent.

Volodymyr Zelenskiy, 41, plays the role of president in “Servant of the People,” a satirical show about an ordinary man who ends up president after fighting corruption. The exit polls for Sunday’s election have Zelenskiy taking in 30.4 percent, with current president, Petro Poroshenko, in second at 17.8 percent.
