Chairman of the Central Electoral Commission (CEC) of Armenia, Vahagn Hovakimyan, announced on Monday that no violations occurred during the voting in the June 7 parliamentary elections that could have affected the results.
Speaking at a press briefing, he stated that he supports conducting a recount of votes in all polling stations.
“We are now at a point where the passing threshold of a political force can essentially be decided by a few votes. Therefore, we need to have a highly precise picture,” Hovakimyan said.
The preliminary vote count results from all 2,005 polling stations have been tallied, with a turnout of 1,477,736 voters (nearly 59 percent).
The votes received by the four leading political forces are as follows:
Civil Contract Party – 727,160 votes, or 49.825%
Strong Armenia Alliance – 340,088 votes, or 23.281%
Armenia Alliance – 145,113 votes, or 9.934%
Prosperous Armenia Party – 58,378 votes, or 3.996%
Earlier results released by the electoral commission showed Gagik Tsarukyan’s Prosperous Armenia having garnered exactly 4%, the minimum threshold required to enter parliament. However, the updated data shows otherwise.
Hovakimyan emphasized that these figures are preliminary and that a phase of verification and recounting is still ahead.
