Yerevan, 15 March: Armenian Speaker Tigran Torosyan is sceptical about
various opinion polls on the forthcoming parliamentary election in
the country [on 12 May]. According to such polls, the Republican Party
of Armenia [RPA] has considerably less popularity than the Prosperous
Armenia Party [led by businessman Gagik Tsarukyan].

Torosyan told a news conference today [15 March] that results of such
polls are quite approximate almost two months before the election as
voters have not yet made up their minds in terms of their preferences
and that it is a question whether they are sincere or not when giving
their answers. "I am sure that the picture will significantly change
when we get closer to the election, but even then, such polls will
be relative," he said.
