"According to the polls results Arthur Baghdasaryan is considered
to be a preferable united candidate, and Levon Ter-Petrosyan is a
preferable united candidate in the oppositional group," said Aharon
Adibekyan, the director of "Sociometer" sociological center.

According to him Vahan Hovhannisyan got little percentage as
an oppositional united candidate. He added that V. Manukyan and
A. Geghamyan are the third and the fourth in the list, but they are
more preferable oppositional united candidates.

Adibekyan said that L. Ter-Petrosyan created negative image and it is
evaluated as 40%, and Serzh Sargsyan-9%. He continued presenting the
figures and they showed that A. Geghamyan got 6% and A. Baghdasaryan
3% for creating negative image. A. Melikyan’s, T. Karapetyan’s and
A. Harutyunyan’s negative images are evaluated as 17%.

Adibekyan said that there won’t be a second stage, but if there is,
then the oppositional representative will get 40%.
