    MERELY OUTRAGEOUS ELECTIONS

    The member of the Transparency International organization Amalya
    Kostanyan and the head of the Vanadzor branch of the Helsinki
    Association Artur Sakunts expressed their opinions in connection with
    the election on May 31.

    Artur Sakunts stated that it was merely an outrageous election. Unknown
    people tried to bribe him saying, "let's go to eat something", stated
    Sakunts with anger.

    The electoral commissions were formed to rig the election. In one of
    the polling stations the head of the commission was making notes in
    front of the names of the voters, which is not allowed by the law,
    noted Sakunts.

    The trustees, the observers and the members of the commissions were
    working as a team trying to direct the voters. People were afraid
    to complain that someone else had already voted instead of them. As
    to the international observers, Sakunts noted that either they have
    been bribed or they consider Armenia the enclave of Russia.

    Amalya Kostanyan demanded to declare invalid the results of the
    election at the 8 electoral district. There was created some atmosphere
    of fear, terror. Kostanyan is sure that no normal mechanism may work
    here, the only way out is not to bear it and to rebel.
