YEREVAN, SEPTEMBER 8, NOYAN TAPAN. During the September 5 sitting,
the RA Central Electoral Commission (CEC) made a decision to invite
international observers to the elections to local self-government
bodies to be held in Armenia in September and October 2008. Taking
into account the fact that the Armenian government has already sent
an invitation to the Council of Europe Congress of Local and Regional
Authorities, the RA CEC decided to send invitations to those foreign
ambassadors to Armenia whose residence is in Yerevan, to the head of
the OSCE Yerevan Office, the Council of Europe Secretary General's
special representative to Armenia, the head of the Armenia Office of
the International Foundation for Election Systems (IFES), and to the
chairman of the Central Electoral Commission of the Nagorno Karabakh
Republic. According to the RA CEC decision, in case of each invitation,
two observers may be accredited for observer mission in Armenia.
By another decision, the RA CEC determined the order, by which the
data of the local electoral commissions' reports on voting results at
the elections to local self-government bodies in district communities
of Yerevan on September 7 and 28 must be entered into "Elections"
computer system.
