    Serzh Sargsyan, Armenia's Prime Minister, leads the race of
    presidential campaign in Armenia, says Andrew Cooper, directors of
    British "Populus" polling company. According to the "Populus" data,
    50.7% of the Armenian adults would vote for him, if the elections were
    to take place tomorrow. Sargsyan leads with a strong gap. According
    to the same data, Arthur Baghdasaryan, from the "Orinats Yerkir"
    opposition party is the second, with 13.4%. Levon Ter-Petrosyan,
    the former president of Armenia is the third (12.6%).

    Results for 6 other candidates are below 10%.

    Today was the last day for the presidential nominees to withdraw
    their candidacies. According to the Central Electoral Committee,
    all 9 candidates continue their presidential race.

    Poll shows, that since last year, Armenian voters have become
    more hopeful about the future - for the country and for them - and
    increasingly think Armenia is moving in the right direction. The number
    of optimists increased for 10%, since April 2007 (form 43% to 53%).

    Nationally representative survey conducted between January 21^st -
    29^th 2008. 1,500 Armenian adults interviewed face-to-face, yielding
    data with a margin of error of 2.6% (at 95% confidence). The poll
    was commissioned by Armenia Public TV & Radio.

    Populus is one of Britain's leading polling companies, with a strong
    record of accuracy in election polls. At the last UK election,
    Populus had an average error of just 0.25%.

    Populus conducts voting polls for a wide range of high profile
    clients, including BBC, The Times, Conservatives, Labour, and Liberal-
    Democrats.
