The organization (HCA) has been following the electoral campaign
process in the framework of the project Legal Initiative, Elections
2007.
The observers of the organization have recorded breaches carried by
the Prosperous Armenia, the Republican Party of Armenia, the ARF
Dashnaktsutyun and the United Labour Party. During a meeting the
Republican mayor of Vanadzor Samvel Darbinyan has asked the parents
of a kindergarten to vote for RPA.
Aram Kocharyan, the head of Lori regional administration, at a meeting
with the staff of a Vanadzor clinic, has propagated in favor of RPA,
urging to vote for his party.
According to the report, the Lori regional office for gas supplying
works in favor of RPA as well. Each employee of the office has been
assigned to collect 10 people's signatures and personal data.
"Even the drivers of community routes have been assigned by route
owners to present the passport data of 15 voters - in favor of RPA,"
says Arthur Sakunts, the head of the HCA Vanadzor office. According to
the report, ARF Dashnaktsutyun has been paying 7000 dram for a vote,
and RPA - 3000 to 5000 dram.
Observers state that when the PAP electoral headquarters in Taron
district, Vanadzor, allotted just 5 kg of flour to each family,
it evoked disagreements and arguments. After the argument, the
headquarters added the volume of flour by 20 more kg to each family.
According to the data of the HCA Vanadzor office observers, PAP
activities are not limited to distributing flour. The party provides
citizens with free legal advice. They have given some envelopes to
the residents of Taron district and have written down the personal
data of family members on documents with the seal of PAP on them.
The report also mentions that the ULP office continues taking
applications on social issues from citizens.
ARFD has recruited people under legal age to distribute their posters
and booklets in streets.
The HCA office in Vanadzor is going to submit the registered
contraventions with district electoral commissions.
