The Sociometre sociological center held a survey on April 18-19 with
the participation of 1650 Yerevan residents. As center Director said
at the April 29 press conference, the number of participants of the
May 31 Yerevan Council of Elders elections will make nearly 42.8%. In
his words, RPA member Gagik Beglarian has the highest rating among
candidates for Mayor's post. 26.5% respondents considered him to be
worthy of that post. He is followed by RPA leader Levon Ter-Petrosian,
7.6% and BH candidate Haroutiun Kushkian, 5.7%.
According to A. Adibekian's observation, OYP and ARFD are in the fourth
place. In his words, the latest political developments, in particular,
the fact of ARFD's coming out of the ruling coalition, can have
both positive and negative impact on ARFD's rating. According to the
sociologist, Sociometre also plans to hold two more surveys. However,
one thing is clear for A. Adibekian: "Much will depend on the way the
parties will organize their election campaigns." In his opinion, the
party that will present more social programs will have a higher rating.
