Politics

The results of a poll conducted by Sociometer in the center of Yerevan suggest that over 51 per cent voters will participate in the upcoming parliamentary elections. The Republican Party of Armenia will get the highest number of votes - 13 per cent and the Prosperous Armenia Party will get 11 percent. The Orinats Yerkir Party, the National Solidarity, the ARF Dashnaktsutyun, the Heritage Party will either win over one another’s votes or the voters who have not made up their mind yet. The director of Sociometer Aaron Adibekyan released the data in a news conference at the Friday Club on April 27.

The poll was conducted in Yerevan on April 21. Over 1466 respondents participated in the poll.

Aaron Adibekyan also found out the career layers of the supporters of the parties. Public officials will vote for the Republican Party, the workers employed in the public sector will vote for the Republican Party and the Prosperous Armenia Party, students, housewives and pensioners will vote for the Orinats Yerkir Party.

42-45 percent think the election will be marred by electoral fraud, 20-29 percent think there will be separate cases like before, and only 3-8 percent think that the election on May 12 will have an unprecedented high level and quality.

Aaron Adibekyan assured that he had no influence on public opinion; he only submitted the polling results.
