Anahit Nersisyan, president of the local election committee at the 5/2
polling station in Davtashen told an international monitor that as of
1pm there had been fourteen cases where voters argued that they needed
assistance in casting their ballots.

`One said he was illiterate, another said he had trouble seeing. But
that’s no reason to allow someone else to step in and help them,’
Nersisyan said.

She also said that she believed that voters with disabilities
shouldn’t be allowed to vote in general.
