    FORGETTING TO WIPE THE TRACES

    A1+
    [02:30 pm] 27 November, 2008

    Candidates are still "campaigning" almost two months after the local
    government elections with their pictures and slogans.

    Based on surveys conducted by "A1+", citizens of Yerevan are already
    used to the dirt that lies before and after each election-ripped
    posters stay on the walls and even the rain isn't able to wipe
    the traces.

    "It would be better if each candidate put up his poster on special
    displays, so that it would be easy to take them off after elections
    and that way the city wouldn't be polluted," says Mikayel Iskandaryan.

    Citizen Rima Vardanyan says that the candidates show their attitude
    towards our city by putting up the posters and leaving them up.

    Citizens of Yerevan don't accept the fact that a single candidate
    puts up 8 or 10 pictures one after another. "Don't they understand
    that they are making the walls dirty and wasting money at the same
    time?" asked Nazik Hasratyan.

    Secretary of the Nor-Nork district administration Sergey Khalafyan
    told "A1+" that they have assigned the communes and candidates to
    remove all posters that are "out of limit".

    According to Khalafyan, much work has already been done; there are
    simply posters that have been put up with special glue and it is only
    possible to take them off by scratching. He expressed hope that there
    will not be any new posters in Nor-Nork district anytime soon.

    The press service of the "Kentron" district informed that there is
    no certain organization in charge of the cleaning of posters. They
    have warned the candidate's headquarters to take them off; however,
    A1+ reporters have gone around the city and report that nothing has
    been done.
