Vigen Sargsyan: Vote for the political force, in which you invest  your hopes for future of Armenia

ArmInfo. The leader of the election list of the Republican Party, the former head of the  Ministry of Defense Vigen Sargsyan, hopes that by the end of election  day the Armenian society will become more united. "Armenia, which  today is facing such important challenges, simply needs to  consolidate forces. Forming an internal enemy is very dangerous for  us," he told reporters after he voted at the polling station 9/47 in  the center of Yerevan.

According to him, he has high hopes for the current parliamentary  elections. Vigen Sargsyan urges all voters not to remain on the side  and today to take an active part in the electoral process regardless  of political preferences. "The worst thing you can do is stay at  home. Be sure to come to the polls and consciously vote for the  political force in which you invest your hopes for the future of your  country," he said.  The leader of the RPA list said that the third  Armenian President Serzh Sargsyan will certainly take part in the  elections. At the same time, he abstained from calling on which  polling station he would vote.

To note, snap parliamentary elections are being held in Armenia  today, in which 9 parties and 2 blocs participate. The number of  voters, according to the Central Election Commission, is 2,575,939  people.  Today, starting from 8:00 am, 2010 polling stations have  been opened all over the country, voting will end at 8:00 pm.  Election are being observed by 8 international and 22 local  organizations. Besides local media 32 foreign media are covering the  elections.
