STORYLINE:
Pro-Moscow authorities in occupied Donetsk claimed that residents in the region voted to join Russia in referendums the U.S. and its Western allies have dismissed as illegitimate.
According to Russia-installed election officials, 99% in of the ballots cast in the Donetsk region supported annexation, as did 93% in the Zaporizhzhia region, 87% in the Kherson region, and 98% in the Luhansk.
Possibly explaining the lower favorable vote in Kherson is that Russian authorities there have faced a strong Ukrainian underground resistance movement whose members have killed Moscow-appointed officials and threatened those who considered voting.
Putin is expected to address Russia's parliament about the votes on Friday, and Valentina Matviyenko, who chairs the body's upper house, said lawmakers could consider annexation legislation on Oct. 4.
