YEREVAN, FEBRUARY 14, NOYAN TAPAN. As of February 13, 1.5
million ballot-papers and envelopes have been printed, which
will be distributed to electoral constituency commisions by
the "Armincassation" organization since February 14. As Abram
Bakhchagulian, the Secretary of the RA Central Electoral Commission,
mentioned at the press conference held on February 13, on the coming
two days they will be distributed to the electoral constituency
commissions of regions and of Yerevan on February 16.
Abram Bakhchagulian stated that as of February 11, the Central
Electoral Commission has received 23 application-protests, 19 out of
which have been discussed and those, who have submitted applications,
have been answered. In the words of the Secretary of the Central
Electoral Commission, a number of problems and suggestions aroused
in the applications do not correspond to the demands of the Electoral
Code. For example, according to the application of Heghine Bisharian,
the Deputy Chairwoman of the Orinats Yerkir (Country of Law) Party,
the Central Electoral Commission is offered to also include the codes
of passports when making the electoral lists, which is not envisaged
by the Electoral Code.
It was also mentioned that by the assistance of the OSCE Yerevan Office
and the IFES international organization two-week teaching courses,
in particular, on the sorting of ballot-papers and making of records
have been held for the members of the electoral commissions.
