Don't forget that Ukraine is still an internally diverse country. Even if in large parts of Donetsk and Luhansk Oblast the vote won't take place, most of Southern and Eastern Ukraine will still have the possibility to vote and I doubt that a majority there will vote for extreme pro-EuroMaidan parties. Maybe on 26 october there will be low turnout in the South-East, but on the long run they will certainly regain some influence. (Not as much as before, because the Krim is gone.) Remember that Kuchma's support base changed from the West to the East. Something similar to this might happen again, i.e. the moderate factions might rely heavily on South-Eastern votes in the near future.
