NO MOBILE PHONES IN PRECINCTS

Politics

Today the Central Electoral Commission convened a plenary session to discuss election-related issues. It is noteworthy that voters cannot photograph ballots by mobile phones at May 12 elections.

“Certainly, we cannot take cellar phones from people. Commission members can watch voters during the election as the cabins are open and secure transparency, says Garegin Azaryan, the CEC Chairman.

Under a CEC decision, voters can attend precincts only once. In case voters' names are left out of electoral rolls, they can return to electoral districts after restoring their right at the corresponding police department.
