The presidential candidate from ARF Dashnaktsutyun Vahan Hovhannissyan
summed up today the results of the first ten days of the election
campaign.
According to him, during the visits to the regions of the country,
he revealed that the residents of rural settlements are interested
in the political life, are concerned about the future of Armenia and
are not solving solely daily problems. The presidential candidate
stated that people are particularly concerned about the opportunity
of secret voting.
Vahan Hovhannissyan informed that in the Northern regions of the
country, the electors have been suggested the idea that in the end
Vahan Hovhannissyan will give his votes in favor of the candidate from
the authority, and have been persuaded to vote openly. He stated that
this is "an absolute lie and a legend," and that even in the second
round he is not going to give his votes to any of the candidates,
since he is sure that he will be the one to participate in the second
round. ARF Dashnaktsutyun will not tolerate such attitude towards
the electors and urges all the citizens not to give any promises and
defend their right for secret voting," Vahan Hovhannissyan stated.
The candidate did not agree with the result of public opinion surveys
of international organizations, noting that he does not trust the
agents of those companies, which work in the provinces. He noted
that 170 thousand citizens have already signed agreements with
Dashnaktsutyun and their number continues growing.
Talking about the pre-election campaigns of the rivals, Vahan
Hovhannissyan stated that some of them are extremely passive, but at
the same time, there are candidates, who visit the regions, and the
escort accompanying them, is enough to secure audience for them.
