Armenian American Community Is Focused on Genocide Resolution According To
Internet Poll
Los Angeles, CA - The Armenian National Committee of America - Western
Region (ANCA-WR) is reporting that an internet poll conducted over a two
week period has shown that over 85% of the Armenian American community is
closely following the Armenian Genocide resolution (H. Res. 106) currently
pending in the U.S. Congress. The poll was conducted in late May and early
June and included the participation of 848 participants.
Individuals who participated in the internet poll were asked if they were
following the progress of H. Res. 106 which is pending before the House
Committee on Foreign Affairs. The bill, which was introduced on January 30,
2007 by Congressman Adam Schiff (D-CA-29) enjoys support from over 195
Members of the U.S. House of Representatives.
Over 85% (731 individuals) of respondents conveyed that they are closely
monitoring the status of the bill. In addition, a resounding 97% of
respondents shared that they would not vote for a Member of Congress who did
not support the Armenian Genocide resolution.
"We are pleased that so many Armenian American voters are educated and
focused on the Armenian Genocide resolution," commented ANCA-WR Executive
Director Andrew Kzirian. "An educated and united community is a strong
community. Clearly, ANC chapters in California, Arizona, Nevada and
elsewhere across the western United States have done a successful job in
educating, voter by voter, our community on the status of the Armenian
Genocide resolution," Kzirian added.
The ANCA-WR internet poll was conducted between May 25, 2007 and June 4,
2007 and included the participation of individuals across the Western United
States. The internet poll surveyed the opinions of 848 individuals and had
an error margin of plus/minus 3 percent.
The Armenian National Committee of America (ANCA) is the largest and most
influential Armenian American grassroots political organization. Working in
coordination with a network of offices, chapters, and supporters throughout
the United States and affiliated organizations around the world, the ANCA
actively advances the concerns of the Armenian American community on a broad
range of issues.
