HAK official: “Passports stamped 3-4 times during elections”
We have photos of passports which have been stamped about 3-4 times during the May 6 parliamentary elections. It means that certain people voted more than once, knowing that the ink does not vanish from the passport, Coordinator of the Armenian National Congress (HAK) Levon Zurabyan told during the sitting of the Inter-Party Headquarters for Public Oversight of the Elections.
The HAK official says about 800-900 thousand people participated in the voting, the other 700 thousand ‘were involved in election rigging on a state level.'
"The farther the polling stations were, the more audaciously election riggers behaved," he stressed.
Levon Zurabyan underlines that voter turnout has never exceeded 50% in any democratic country.
"Meanwhile, unprecedented turnout was recorded in Armenia, with 86% of eligible voters casting ballots in the May 6 polls. The real number of voters stands at 1 800 000, as 700 000 of the country's 2 500 000 people are not in the republic," he said.
