Did RA CEC refutes the entry of the Turkish observers during NA
elections held on May 12.

CEC Chairman Garegin Azaryan rejected the Turkish Mass Media release
and added that certificates were granted everybody introduced in the
lists of OSCE/ OSCE’s Office for Democratic Institutions and Human
Rights (ODIHR).

We could not make any further clarifications in the OSCE/ (ODIHR)
office. "A1+" found out that leader of the Mission is out of the
country. At the brief meting with the reporters, Garegin Azaryan
announced that there might be some people would come to the elections
twice, one being by majority ticket the other by proportional one.

Any pen will do during the elections as the ink color is not
essential. What concerns donations at the election campaign, for
instance, " Prosperous Armenia" donated ambulance cars to Byureghavan,
Garegin Azaryan mentioned that he did not see it as an election bribe
as it was presented not a person but the whole community. What about
the lotteries distributed to people in Byureghavan? Garegin Azaryan
stated that he had no idea about it.

"A1+" provides its readers with the lottery samples of ‘ Prosperous
Armenia’ with the hope that CEC Chairman will find it out at the
next briefing.
