The leader of the People’s Party Tigran Karapetyan stated November 13
at the Hayeli club he disbelieves the results of the poll by ComRes,
which give the highest popular rating to Serge Sargsyan among the
presidential candidates.

"I disbelieve because the same people are conducting the polls. And
I have already said they are liars," Tigran Karapetyan says. When the
reporters reminded him that this one is an international organization,
he said "they are also liars." "The international ones are even
worse. Our party has 15 thousand members. They did not encounter any
of them during the poll. Where did they conduct the poll?" Tigran
Karapetyan says.

He says the fact that Armenia TV ordered the poll makes think. The
leader of the People’s Party also says he is not saying this because he
ranks 7 or 8 among the candidates. "I am among ten and it is already
good," Tigran Karapetyan says with a smile.
