YEREVAN, JUNE 1, NOYAN TAPAN. On June 1, representative of Orinats
Yerkir (Country of Law) Party Hovhannes Margarian at the Constitutional
Court demanded invalidating RA CEC's May 19 decision On Electing RA
NA Deputies by Proportional System and carrying out recalculation of
voting at polling stations of a number of electoral districts. The
party representative is convinced that the party could have more
representatives in the parliament than it was recognized by CEC's
decision. In OYP representative's words, many violations were committed
when filling in registers. In his words, the initial data of voting
results were not registered, protocols lack notes about actions
carried out during the sitting on summing up the results of voting,
when giving in documents of a number of polling stations to CEC sacks
for one-time use were opened, electoral rolls were not in those sacks
in the established order, in many cases calculation of inaccuracies
was done wrongly or was not done at all. H. Margarian referring to
the report of Choice is Yours organization, mentioned, in particular,
the facts of stuffing ballot-boxes at polling stations of electoral
district N 11.
RA CC Chairman Gagik Haroutiunian explained to the claimant
representative that the latter should introduce facts to motivate
the necessity of making recalculation. In response to CEC Chairman
Garegin Azarian's question, if so many violations were committed,
why party representatives who were commission members did not attach
special opinions to protocols of voting results, H. Margarian said
that such opinions were presented, but the data were changed. But
the representative of the claimant party did not respond to
G. Haroutiunian's proposal to introduce the initial variants of
changed protocols to the court, if they have been kept.
