    E-voting for Armenian presidential hopefuls gets under way

    20:12 - 09.02.13


    Armenia's Central Election Commission (CEC) began Saturday morning an
    online voting for the candidates contesting the February 18
    presidential election.

    The system is designed to address the needs of the Armenian diplomats
    and their families residing abroad.

    The e-voting will last five days, with the results expected to go
    public five hours after the process is over, CEC President Tigran
    Mukuchyan told Tert.am.

    The procedure allows a person to change the voting result several
    times, but the software counts only the final vote.

    `Because diplomats and consules, and the Armenian citizens who are
    members of their families vote via the Internet, the new electronic
    voting offers them a unique opportunity to access the system several
    times to enable him- in case of attempt to oversee the process - to
    change the vote by typing his login and password,' Mukuchyan said.

    The online voting system was launched in Armenia during the 2012
    parliamentary election. The e-voter register contained 238 names then.
