At one of the polling stations in Armenia, the head of the local municipal service and his wife collected the ballots in a bag and took them away. This is reported by the Armenian Vendetta telegram channel with reference to a local news outlet.
A video has fallen into the hands of journalists, in which the chairman of the Sisian district election Commission, Armine Andranikyan, a member of the Civil Contract party, enters the polling station in the village of Lor. She takes the ballots from the booth, puts them in a bag and says that she is going to move them to another polling station.
In this she was assisted by her husband, the chairman of the commission, a member of the Civil Contract party, David Margaryan❶.
He is the head of the Sisian municipal service and, as the telegram channel notes, is actively involved in the political activities of the Civil Contract party.
