"The population want to see honest and decent people in the Parliament
without any nicknames," says the former Ombudsman Larissa Alaverdyan,
who is on the Heritage Party majority list for the upcoming elections.
It is supposed that May 12 elections will be faked according to the
violations registered by the party, particularly Larissa Alaverdyan is
concerned about the atmosphere of fear and ignorance in rural places.
Voters even have declared which candidate or party they are going
to vote. The most striking is that residents of big towns are also
subjected to psychological abuse.
Ms Alaverdyan envisages that the election day will be accompanied with
horror scenes and "dead people in line with live ones" will participate
in the elections. "We receive the data of pre-election violations on
daily bases. The Heritage Party considers these violations were not
coordinated and systematized by the Government. Besides, there are
inaccuracies in the electoral rolls."
The Heritage Party doesn't trust the figures introduced by sociological
centers. "According to Aharon Adibekyan only the Bargavach Hayastan
and the Republican parties will forge the upcoming elections as only
these two parties have electorate," says Larissa Alaverdyan.
Larissa Alaverdyan stated that the Armenian mass media's role in
democracy building processes is more vivid and actual than that of
non-government organizations. "NGOs are scared to a special extent.
Mass media is more active in the pre-election period.
Anyway, the Central Electoral Commission and the RoA Prosecutor's
Office ignore numerous election violations disclosed by the mass
media."
