IJEVAN, JUNE 6, NOYAN TAPAN. According to preliminary data, as a
result of the elections held on May 28 in the community of Debedavan,
Tavush region, current village head, RPA member Salavat Babayan had
received 190 votes and his rival, non-partisan Vanya Damirchian 188
votes. The latter applied to district electoral commission N 40 with
a demand to recalculate the ballot-papers.
The commission recognized invalid 4 ballot-papers for Salavat
Babayan. As a result, the commission registered 186 ballot-papers for
Salavat Babayan and the number of ballot-papers for Vanya Damirchian
remained unchanged, 188. Salavat Babayan applied to first instance
court of Tavush region demanding that the decision of district
electoral commission N 40 about recognizing the ballot-papers invalid
be invalidated. As Chairman of Tavush first instance court Samvel
Mardanian is a member of the same commission, the court sitting on
this case will be presided by judge of the same court Zoya Zakinian
(residence town of Berd). The latter informed Noyan Tapan correspondent
that the court sitting, probably, will take place on June 7.
