CEC MEMBER SAYS POLICE AND SICK PEOPLE SOURCE OF DOUBLE VOTING
`Do not have a hope that we will have normal elections because there
are preconditions for that,' Feliks Khachatryan, Central Electoral
Committee (CEC) member and representative of Justice Alliance,
said. In his words, `The authorities have no wish to conduct normal
election because they are fond of their posts.'
CEC member said it is not acceptable to say now that the elections are
faked. He said it should be done during the campaign and
elections. However, Khachatryan said, `There are plans to fake
elections.'
In his words, two harmful things were possible to prevent for these
election. It was decided to make a note in the military book of the
soldiers in order to prevent double voting of soldiers. `The military
books of the soldiers will be stamped so that they cannot go to the
electoral unit and vote for the second time,' Khachatryan said.
CEC member said, `The process of pouring extra voter lists have become
difficult,' saying that voters must put their voter ticket into an
envelope which must be signed before putting into the bulletin box.
`Now they cannot even add extra 100 into the bulletin box,'
Khachatryan said happily.
Khachatryan warned again double voting as a source of election
fraud. He said the police and sick people may be potential voters for
double voting.
According to the law the citizen registry offices and OVIR must list
out the police on duty in different election centers from their
communities and list them in the election centers where they perform
their duties three days before the elections. `This is practically and
theoretically not possible. As a result there will be 20,000 people
more,' Khachatryan said. The same refers to sick people who are in
hospital. He said they will vote in hospitals and their names should
be taken out from the community lists.
