    Prospering Armenia party surprised with its low results

    Prospering Armenia party is surprised with its unexpectedly low
    results - only 14.7% of votes.

    REGNUM reports the member of the party Aram Isabekyan to say that the
    elections were normal and the party is glad that the international
    observers have approved of the voting process.

    To note, the leader of the party is well-known Armenian businessman
    Gagik Tsarukyan. The party does not have a clear ideology. Its key
    trump is its charitable activity. Earlier experts said that the party
    was the president's project aimed at gaining over part of the
    opposition electorate. The party says that it has 400,000 members but
    experts doubt that and low 14.7% support has proved their doubts.

    To remind, according to the preliminary results, Prospering Armenia
    got 204,443 votes (14.7%). Only RPA is ahead with 457,032
    (32.8%). ARFD has got 177,192 votes (12.7%), Orinats Yerkir - 95,256
    votes (6.8%), Heritage - 80,890 votes (5.8%), United Labor Party -
    59,307 votes (4.2%).
