CENTRAL ELECTORAL COMMITTEE GOING TO FORGE?

Politics

Today the Central Electoral Committee refused to discuss the offer of the Committee member Felix Khachatryan from the Justice bloc «To apply to the RA Government with the offer to introduce changes into the RA Electoral Code».

Deputy head of the Committee Abraham Bakhchagoulyan said at the beginning of the session that the new Electoral Code has not been tested yet, and they must wait for the elections of the local governing bodies. Mr. Khachatryan said, «You have not been tested either, but you have been elected deputy head of the Committee».

Nevertheless, the Committee voted the offer down. Mr. Khachatryan told the journalists that all the forgeries start from the Central Electoral Committee. He was not surprised by the fact that the offer was not accepted but by the fact that they had refused even to discuss it. «Why don't they want to discuss it? Let them discuss and turn it down. They do not allow me to be heard», said the representative of the Justice bloc to the Committee.
