YEREVAN. - The legislative provision on not charging electoral
observes for expressing their opinion about the elections has been
removed from RA Electoral Code and in regard of this `The choice is
yours' NGO has proposed to Armenia's CEC to adopt a decision on that
provision.
As the NGO states in its proposal, the provision was removed from the
Electoral Code by the parliament in 2011.
The NGO proposes the CEC to make a decision which will not charge
electoral observes for their opinions about the election.
The CEC refused the proposal reasoning that only the parliament can
make such decisions and the CEC has not the right to make them, as its
responsibility is to organize the elections and to provide for them to
be transparent and just.
