/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Despite the statement of the Armenian National
Congress (ANC) at the rally on June 1 about renunciation of the
Yerevan city council mandates, ANC representatives have not still
sent statements on mandate renunciation to the Central Electoral
Committee (CEC) of Armenia, CEC press-secretary Tatevik Ohanyan told
a PanARMENIAN.Net reporter.
"Even if ANC representatives renounce their mandates, their places
in the City council would remain vacant, since the Armenian law does
not allow conducting re-elections to complete vacant positions in
the Yerevan City Council," she said.
All representatives of ANC in voting lists must make separate
statements, Ms.Ohanyan stressed. "As Armenian media have reported, ANC
has 12 to 13 mandates in the City Council. However, only preliminary
data have been available so far. The process of recounting of votes
is conducted at the moment. After ultimate results of the elections
become public, then the sitting will be called to resolve the number
of mandates for each political party in the Council," Ms. Ohanyan said.
