Hrant Bagratyan’s facebook note
Well, the elections are over.
We are given 2 %, significantly low. At first glance, this is a defeat but in reality, I am proud for 30,000 votes. (We would have received 100,000 if the election were not fraudulent).
I understand that the authorities continue taking away my percentage of votes. Vote buying, ballot stuffing, double voting and a faulty voters' list.
We will still discuss the issue of the official publishing. From the number of extracts from the minutes that we have only a few of them were less than 5%. On all occasions that is not a victory, I haven't even found the key to the victory.
Besides from the beginning the authorities were not only fighting for their candidate but also for predetermining the second and the third places. Raffi seized that opportunity perfectly. Bravo.
The authorities obviously tried to stop his unexpected triumph march at the end but it was already too late.
Now the course of the future events depends on Raffi. If Paruyr behaved in a right way, I'm sure, he would have the third place (though it's not too late).So everything was decided:
Thank you, my dear voters, all your votes are priceless to me and you'll see they will not be lost.
