"If this election is rigged, it will be the end, it is impossible to
go on like this. In case it is rigged, we will gather in the streets",
stated the Head of the People’s Party (ZhK), the first number on the
ZhK ticket for Mayor, Tigran Karapetyan.

He noted that the government takes up measures against him, for
example, as he stated, they go to people’s houses and tell them that
of course, Karapetyan is a good man, but he will not pass and he is
sure that people do not like the government.

The ZhK head is sure that people, who are going to vote neither
for the government nor for the opposition, will vote for his party,
because there is no other candidate for whom they may vote. According
to Karapetyan, there are 3 political fields: the government, which
will put in action all its recourses and will get about 25 percent,
the other is the Armenian National Congress, and the third is the
People’s Party with 10 percent.

Tigran Karapetyan stated that they are going to cooperate with the
HAK in keeping the votes and this time they are not going to let
their votes disappear. He added that they intend to go to the poling
stations with 10 TV cameras where they votes are rigged.

In answer to the question, what is Tigran Karapetyan’s first step
is he is elected Mayor of Yerevan, the latter answered that he will
consulate with the people to know what to do.
