YEREVAN, APRIL 20, NOYAN TAPAN. Ordering more ballot-boxes than
necessary for holding of voting at the May 12 parliamentary elections
is conditioned by the circumstance that they will be used at the next
elections, too, as well as by the circumstance that "as experience
shows, ballot-boxes gradually start to disappear." Abram Bakhchagulian,
CEC Vice-Chairman, RPA representative, said at the April 20 press
conference in response to Noyan Tapan correspondent's question.
To recap, the day before CEC stored 5 thousand transparent ballot-boxes
brought from Syria, on which RA coat of arms is stamped. 3846
out of these 5 thousand ballot-boxes will be used on May 12: two
ballot-boxes will be given to each of 1923 polling stations of Armenia
for proportional and majoritarian voting. They will have apricot and
white covers, respectively. And smaller, transparent ballot-boxes used
during the previous elections will be used as movable ballot-boxes
in the forthcoming elections.
