PanARMENIAN.Net - Zhoghovurd paper says it received alarm calls from
different Armenian provinces on new tricks devised by the ruling
Republican Party of Armenia.
According to the paper, representatives of RPA election offices
distribute nice pens to people urging them to mark the ballot with
these very pens on election day.
These pens are allegedly equipped with a tiny video camera or a
special device to follow the voting procedure.
Zhoghovurd says the pens were distributed particularly in small remote
villages in Syunik, Lori and Tavush provinces.
Local residents were warned the move aims to prevent them from taking
RPA's electoral bribe and voting for a different candidate at
elections, paper reports.
