"Sociometer" social centre directed by Aharon Adibekyan started
to conduct presidential survey in the beginning of the year. "We
started to carry out the examination stage of the candidates, as we
were interested in how they would behave during the parliamentary
elections and after them," said the leader of the centre in a press
conference held today.
According to him when they started the names of the candidates were
unknown. A question "Who do you want to see as a president" was asked
and 41 names were mentioned. The centre conducted the last poll and
2220 people took part but only 1650 of them answered to the question.
According to Aharon Adibekyan the parliamentary elections had very
serious results, as after the rating of some political leaders
decreased and the opposite. "After the parliamentary elections the
ratings of Serzh Sargsyan and Raffi Hovhannisyan increased, Artur
Baghdasaryan’s ratings remained the same, and those of Artashes
Geghamyan and Vazgen Manukyan decreased," he said. According to him
Levon Ter-Petrosyan’s rating doubled: from 1.3% to 2.7%.
In January 7.7% of the participants said that they would vote for
Serzh Sargsyan, whereas in the results of October month 27.2% would
vote for him. In January 33% of the participants said that Serzh
Sargsyan would be elected, and in October-48%. Correspondingly the
results for Raffi Hovhannisyan are 10.5% in January, 5.4 in October;
Artur Baghdasaryan – 9.4% and 4.8%; Levon Ter-Petrosyan – 1.3%
and 2.7%; Artashes Geghamyan’s ratings decreased from 8.2% to 2%;
Vahan Hovhannisyan’s rating was zero in January, and 1.4% in October;
Vazgen Manukyan’s rating decreased from 3.5% to 1.1%.
According to Adibekyan former officials will vote for Levon
Ter-Petrosyan, and as well as the businessmen.
"After Serzh Sargsyan became a Prime Minister, the customs sphere
was straitened. That’s why they prefer Levon Ter-Petrosyan," he said.
Acording to Adibekyan there are little chances for the second part
of the elections.
