Raffi Hovannisian today met with Trian Hristea, the Head of the EU
Delegation in Armenia.
The two discussed the February 18 presidential election and the
resulting political instability in Armenia due to the popular distrust
of the official vote result.
Tomorrow, Hovannisian will meet with Norbert Lammert, the President
of the German Bundestag now in Armenia on an official visit.
Today, Hovannisian's campaign headquarters will file a petition with
the Constitutional Court questioning the constitutionality of Article
18, Point 5, of the RA Electoral Code.
Point 5 reads:
After calling elections, candidates, political parties, alliances
of political parties running in elections under the proportional
electoral system may form election campaign offices. Election campaign
offices may not be located in buildings occupied by state and local
self-government bodies (except for cases where election campaign
offices occupy an area not belonging to such bodies) as well as in
buildings where electoral commissions are functioning. Signboards
placed on election campaign offices shall not be regarded as print
campaign materials within the meaning of this Code, if they do not
contain direct appeals to vote for or against a candidate, political
party (alliances of political parties), and if the number of such
posters does not exceed the number of election precincts formed for
the purpose of elections, and if the area that each poster (signboard)
occupies does not exceed six square meters.
