MARKET ELECTIONS
At about 12:00 the electoral area N9/15 of the Kentron community reminded a
medieval market. The chairs for observers were taken by young people without
certificates. When the «A1+» journalist tried to find out who they are, the
Committee head explained that the «voluntary observers» do not feel well.
There was a huge queue in the electoral area, and one could not understand
who was an elector and who was not. Hence there were disagreements between
the members of the Committee and the confidants of the candidates. For
example, the confidant of Rouzan Khachatryan was not allowed to observe the
passports. About 20 young people tried to fulfill their civic duty twice,
member of the Committee, representative of the Justice bloc Anahit Gasparyan
informed.
A 17-year-old boy who does not have suffrage also tried to participate in
the elections.
According to the head of the Committee David Tovmasyan, there were mistakes
in the electoral rolls: 14 citizens did not find their names in the rolls,
ad 15 were not residents of the community.
The situation was soothed in the electoral area in an hour only, when the
confidant of Rouzan Khachatryan complained of the situation and left the
area without realizing who was an elector and who was not.
