    different agents included in electoral commissions or the electoral
    process cannot be viewed as a sufficient basis for changing the
    election results.

    [protocols of precinct electoral commissions were signed by all
    eight members of commission. 96% was signed by seven members. There
    were only eight protocols that were signed by only five members of
    commission. This means that representatives of opposition parties also
    signed the protocols. Garegin Azaryan also presented the process
    of preparation of the electrons, the discussion of complaints,
