The election of Yerevan’s Elders Council is due in four days.

A1+ conducted a survey to find out our citizens’ opinions about the
election campaign.

Many of our respondents are going to participate in the vote.

Still, there are some who say an election is an imitation and
their vote is of no value as everything is predetermined. They mean
Republican Gagik Beglarian’s appointment as Yerevan’s mayor on the
eve of election.

"The election will not be free and fair as the mayor’s post is already
filled. Mr. Beglarian will hold the position for four years," said
Yerevan citizen Lianna Baghdasarian.

Most citizens turned out to be unaware of the candidates’ pre-election
pregrammes.

"Why should I read their programmes? They will not be realized,
anyway," said Armen Sargsian.
