    "THE RULING GOVERNMENT IS IN FRENZY"

    "Non-partisans of Armenia, unite!"-this is the slogan for president
    of the Union of Politicians Hmayak Hovhannisyan who still hasn't
    registered to run for deputy by the majoritarian order at the #10
    precinct.

    During a press conference at the "Artsakh" club today, Hovhannisyan
    reiterated that he is going to run for office and will not reject
    his nomination for somebody, despite the rumors flying around. Hmayak
    Hovhannisyan is going to run for office by civil initiative.

    Let us remind that the post has been vacant since Khachatur Sukiasyan
    dropped his deputy mandate at the #10 precinct.

    The president of the Union of Politicians only regrets that he had
    not run for office during the 2007 parliamentary elections.

    According to him, the ruling government was in frenzy after
    Hovhannisyan announced that he was going to run for office and that is
    why the Central Electoral Commission has not appointed the time-frames
    for elections to this day. "By law, the NA Chairman had to appeal to
    the CEC Chairman within 5 days to inform that there was a vacant spot
    and after that, the CEC had to announce the nomination, the deadlines
    for registration and the day of elections. But they didn't do that,"
    says Hovhannisyan.

    Why is Hmayak Hovhannisyan tying that to him? In response, he said:
    "To this day, I am the only one who has announced that he is going
    to run for office."

    Rumor has it that chairman of the Armenian Progressive Party Tigran
    Urikhanyan and Vahan Babayan from the MIAK party are also running
    for office at this precinct.

    Press secretary for the CEC Tatev Ohanyan told "A1+" that the date
    for the vote has not been announced and the CEC just received the
    protocol from the National Assembly last night.
