Political scientist Hrant Melik-Shahnazaryan writes:
"On March 30, Gyumri will elect a mayor. There has been a lot of talk that these elections can be of national importance. I also see such an opportunity and I hope that the people of Gyumri will be right and will not allow the authorities to steal those elections.
Yesterday I have already written that according to the ruling team inquiries, their candidate can only claim 22% of votes in Gyumri. This has become a reason to draw conclusions for Nicole and the rest of the Nicole. They will not stop in front of anything and they will do their best to keep Sarik as mayor in Gyumri. In order not to happen, the people of Gyumri should take a few important steps.
a. It is necessary to take part in the elections as many citizens as possible. The logic is clear. If a contractual 10,000 people are voting for voting, the administrative resource of the authorities, the conditional 5% of their votes, ensure 50% of their votes. If 40,000 people go to the selection, the governmental administrative resources gives them only 12.5% of votes. In other words, in Gyumri and in general, any Gyumri, which is worried about the fate of Armenia, will be, too, and it is simply obliged to go to the choice. Choosing does not equal to Nicole and the rest of the nicolors.
b. The people of Gyumri need to know that not all participants in the election are in honest pushing in the election campaign. There are many features where the mission of which fell into the voice from the opposition candidates, or the minimum is the minimum, the votes. According to the electoral system in Armenia, these votes, according to the electoral system in Armenia, are again again reaching the authorities again. However, the most dangerous ones are the mines invested in the electoral process.
c. I am convinced that such a "mine", for example, "Euro-Devil" led by Levon Barseghyan. Their promises about both the government and the opposition are just a lie. Overcoming the Electoral Threshold "Euro Dashin", the authorities need to have 50% +1 votes together. In other words, "EUROPASHINK" SHOULD GIVE THE FIRST IN THE FIRST TOURISM IN THE FIRST TOURISM, AND IN THE FIRST TOURISM. This is the most important mechanism for stealing the election. Therefore, in order to prevent this, it is necessary to overcome the transitional threshold of the "EUROPASHIN".
I must say that in my deep conviction, the main election fraud will not be in favor of Sarik (he cannot claim most of the vote. Therefore, I urge all opposition candidates to be especially careful to be taken to "Euro".
d. In the case of the victory of the opposition, it is important that the new mayor of Gyumri be as insured as possible from the authorities and pressure. In my opinion, in the last two days, Martun Grigoryan is a very important conceptual thesis, saying that Vardan Ghukasyan is a desirable candidate for the authorities. Or rather, not desirable, but the least evil. A few days ago, I wrote about it. Therefore, I continue to be convinced that if the opposition wins, it would be good if Martun Grigoryan is elected mayor.
By making such an offer, I also exit the fact that the victory of the opposition in Gyumri can really become a real start of the process of removing the power of Nicole and other Nicole. Therefore, Gyumri needs a mayor who will be able to cooperate and work with all the wings of the opposition and will really serve the victory of Gyumri. Otherwise, the Gyumri elections will remain pure local elections and will not benefit from the country's restoration.
e. I am very convinced that Ruben Mkhitaryan - Martun Grigoryan Cooperation can be a strong basis for removing the authorities. In case of victory of the opposition, Grigoryan can keep the rear, Gyumri, and Mkhitaryan brought the wave of victory to Yerevan. I hope it will be. But first, Nicole and the problem of overthrowing Nicole and the rest of the noctors must be resolved. And for that, my belief should follow my first four points.
Again, I want to urge the people of Gyumri to go to the voting and vote for real oppositionists on March 30. I am confident, dear people of Gyumri, you understand the seriousness of the moment and you will make the right decision. With God. "
