  "summary": "The voting for the Public Control Council at ARMA, the agency responsible for finding, tracing and managing assets derived from corruption and other crimes in Ukraine, has been extended until the morning of October 2. The initial voting period, which began on September 29, was postponed by a day due to Russian shelling that damaged technical equipment. A total of 31 candidates nominated by 17 public associations participated in the competition, with 27 eventually admitted to the voting. Voting is accessible through ARMA's website, and Ukrainian citizens residing in Ukraine are eligible to participate. Each participant can vote once, selecting up to nine candidates. The nine candidates with the most votes will be selected to serve on the advisory body, with the results announced on ARMA's official website within a day of voting concluding. This election follows a previous online vote in August 2026 that was suspended due to a technical failure.",
