Will elections in Armenia one day rated as fair, free and
transparent? If yes, the event will be inscribed with gold letters
in the history of the third Republic of Armenia or probably included
in the Guinness Record Book. Though for civilized countries free
and fairs elections is quite a natural phenomenon. What condition is
essential to make elections in Armenia correspond to international
standards" We addressed 100 Yerevan residents with the question.
In the opinion of 30% of the respondents the good will of the
authorities is essential. 25% consider that a proper Electoral Code
should guarantee free and fair elections. Though some of them said that
in the current situation conduction of fair elections is impossible
even with the availability of good Electoral Code.
One of those surveyed offered to form separate, politically
independent groups to take control over the polling stations. 15%
think that opposition is capable to press for conduction of elections
corresponding to international standards. 8% found difficulty in
answering.
