YEREVAN, MAY 29, NOYAN TAPAN. According to the surveys conducted by the
Sociometer sociological center in April-May, 25% Yerevan residents take
no interest in the forthcoming Yerevan Council of Elders elections and
4% are going to boycott them. Sociometer Director Aharon Adibekian
reported at the May 28 press conference. In his words, 22% voters
have not decided yet whether to go to ballot or not, 29% will go to
ballot and know for whom to vote. And 17% voters refused to say for
whom they are going to vote.
A.Adibekian said that 20% voters follow the election campaign and
political advertisements, but only 3% wants to get acquainted with
political forces' programs. Only 37% voters trust their preferred
force, the others have other reasons for their choice. A. Adibekian
also said that the interest of 5% voters has grown during the
election campaign and only 4.4% have oriented themselves by the
advertisement. According to the sociologist, it is noteworthy that
only 15% voters are ready to take electoral bribe, which permits
to suppose that for political forces it will be very difficult to
succeed through voter buying.
