    `Heritage' Party overpassed 5-percent barrier, party considers
    that result understated
    13.05.2007 13:32 GMT+04:00

    /PanARMENIAN.Net/ According to preliminary information, opposition
    `Heritage' Party (leader is ex-Foreign Minister of Armenia Raffi
    Hovhannisyan) has overpassed the 5-percent barrier at the
    parliamentary elections in Armenia.

    Meanwhile party representatives think that the 5-percent result is
    understated, coordinator of party's campaign headquarters Hovsep
    Khurshudyan stated. `These results do not reflect the real outcome of
    voting anyhow,' he stated. Coordinator underlined the party waits for
    the final results of the election. However the matter is not about 5
    or 10 percents. We hope to get much higher result,' Khurshudyan said.

    Sunday morning Khurshudyan stated to journalists `Heritage' does not
    agree with the published interim results of the CEC, according to
    which the party was on 12th place. He underlined, protocols that the
    party has from the polling stations allows to assert that `Heritage'
    occupies 1-2nd place in Yerevan and 3-4th place in regions,
    `Novosti-Armenia' reports.

    Republican Party of Armenia, `Prosperous Armenia' Party, ARF
    Dashnaktsutyun and opposition `Orinats Yerkir' overpassed the
    5-percent barrier. Besides, United Labor Party and National Unity have
    chances to overpass the 5-percent barrier.
