"The National Assembly will set for the 8th amendment of the Election
Code in fall," Felix Khachatryan, representative of Justice block
at the Election Committee, told reporters today. In his words, it
is not a good indicator to make 8 amendments of the Election Code
in the course of 7 years. Khachatryan agrees with Venice Committee,
which said, "The biggest problems are not with the Election Code but
how, actually, they the elections are conducted."

However, Khachatryan informed the reporters that 100 changed are
expected in a law, which has only 141 articles. He said election
committee members are going to be paid for their jobs, according to
the amendment.

Khachatryan expects this change to diminish election
fraud.
