Taking into account the results of vote counting and the number
of naccuracies a by-election will be held in the village of Odzun,
Lori Marz, in 21 days.
Yesterday an election to the village head took place in Odzun. The
incumbent village head Republican Melik Ayvazyan was reelected to the
post leaving behind his non-party rival Arsen Titanyan with four votes.
Arsen Titanyan denounced the vote with his team. They spent the whole
night near precinct 33 and demanded vote recounting. Lori’s marzpet
arrived at the precinct late at night with a police escort to ease
the tense atmosphere.
To note, 69 cases of inaccuracies have been revealed during today’s
vote counting. Actually, Melik Ayvazyan has got 1078 while his
contender Arsen Titanyan 1123 votes.
