    /PanARMENIAN.Net/ The Constitutional Court (CC) of Armenia took
    to consideration today the suit of the presidential candidate Levon
    Ter-Petrosyan, who demands to recognize as "insuperable" the obstacles,
    which arose on his way of continuing the pre-election campaign.

    "The appeal of Ter-Petrosyan's representatives to the Constitutional
    Court is authorized," CC Chairman Gagik Harutyunyan said.

    Meanwhile, Heritage party led by Raffi Hovannisian announced support
    to presidential hopeful Levon Ter-Petrosyan.

    HayPost concluded the delivery of election notifications in the
    whole territory of Armenia, HayPost CJSC Director General Hans Boon
    stated today.

    Addressing the HayPost employees, Hans Boon informed that all the
    electors throughout the country received notifications on the date
    of the elections and on the local polling station, in which they are
    going to vote.

    Working group of the Armenian Prosecutor General's Office in all
    received 41 calls on the possible violations of law in the process
    of the pre-election campaign, Prosecutor General Aghvan Hovsepyan said.

    According to him, as a result of study of the facts, 11 criminal cases
    are initiated - mainly on facts of hooliganism and waste of property.

    Aghvan Hovsepyan noted that 20 out of 41 calls were received as a
    result of study of media publications.

    The characteristic peculiarity of many of the calls, according to the
    Prosecutor General, is the abundance of lie. "Lie and slander became
    an inseparable part of the pre-election tricks used, often directed
    to discredit the law-enforcement bodies", Aghvan Hovsepyan stated,

    In the Name of Democracy youth alliance will hold an exit-poll during
    the presidential elections in Armenia on February 19. As the Deputy
    Chairman of the alliance Gevorg Melikyan told a news conference in
    Yerevan today, the exit-poll will be realized in 100 polling stations
    of the country by 150 members of the organization.

    According to him, the alliance plans to poll 2300 people or 0.1%
    of the whole number of electors. Gevorg Melikyan stated that the
    small number of participants of the poll is conditioned by the
    absence of financial resource, since the alliance is not funded by
    any international organization or a political party.

    The results of the exit-poll will be publicized in 1.5-2 hours after
    the conclusion of the elections.
