    YEREVAN: Armenia's governing party on Monday was set to win
    parliamentary elections that were the biggest test of the country's
    fragile democracy since 2008 polls ended in fatal clashes, partial
    results showed.

    President Serzh Sarkisian's governing Republican party led with
    44.69 percent of the vote after three-quarters of the 1,982 polling
    stations had counted ballots from Sunday's contest, the Central
    Election Commission said.

    Its outgoing coalition partner turned poll rival, the Prosperous
    Armenia party, was running second on 30.61 per cent.

    Trailing far behind, the opposition Armenian National Congress bloc
    was third on 6.72 percent, according to the commission results,
    posted on its website.
