YEREVAN, OCTOBER 26, NOYAN TAPAN. Dashnaktsutiun is against
the draft of amendments of the Electoral Code circulating in the
National Assembly, since it has its own approches with regard to this
issue. This statement was made by Hrayr Karapetian, the Chairman of the
ARF Dashnaktsutiun faction during the parliamentary briefing held on
October 26. In his words, the ARF Dashnaktsutiun considers as primary
the decrease in the number of the representatives of the judicial
system in electoral commissions. And for the purpose of excluding
dual ballots, the party offers to affix a seal to the passport of the
elector after he/she has voted and to fix the lists of the citizens,
who have taken part in the ballot, on the outer wall of the polling
station after the elections, so that people become assured that no
one has voted instead of them.
Hrayr Karapetian mentioned that Dashnaktsutiun discusses the suggested
amendments with other political forces, including extraparliamentary
ones.
According to him, the National Unity, the National Self-Determination
Union, the National Democratic Union, and the Armenian Ramkavar
Azatakan parties have already responded to the suggestions of the
ARF Dashnaktsutiun.
