Poll by Together movement: over 50% of respondents ready to vote at  2026 parliamentary elections, but remain undecided voters 

ArmInfo. More than 50% of respondents want to participate in the 2026 parliamentary elections, but have no idea who they are prepared to vote for.

Aram Sargsyan, coordinator of the socio-political movement  "Together," announced this at a press conference in Yerevan on  December 24 based on the results of a survey organized by the  movement to assess citizens' attitudes toward the political course  pursued by the current Armenian authorities.

According to him, the survey was conducted on social media from  December 1 to 10 and involved 500 people. "All age groups are  represented in the sample, and the overwhelming majority of  respondents have higher education or at least a secondary general  education. 64.8% of respondents live in Yerevan, the remaining 35%  live in various regions of Armenia," Sargsyan said.

The first question, as the movement coordinator noted, pertained to  the foreign policy pursued by the current authorities. According to  the results, 75.8% of respondents assessed this policy very  negatively, 9.8% - somewhat negatively, 1.2% - very positively, 7.4%  - somewhat positively, and 5.7% were undecided.

According to him, the next question concerned the policies pursued by  the Armenian authorities in the areas of public security and law  enforcement, and 71.7% of respondents described it as extremely  negative, 15.2% - somewhat negative, 0.8% - absolutely positive, 8.6%  - positive, and 3.7% were undecided," Sargsyan said.

"60.2% of respondents assessed the government's policies in  healthcare, social policy, and education extremely negatively, while  another 24.6% - somewhat negatively. Only 2.5% of respondents called  them very positive, 9.8% - somewhat positive, and 2.9% were  undecided." Moreover, according to the survey, 62.3% of respondents  are extremely dissatisfied with the current authorities' economic and  financial policies, 20.5% are rather dissatisfied, 1.2% are very  satisfied, 8.6% are rather satisfied, and 7.4% found it difficult to  answer," he noted.

Furthermore, according to him, 75.8% of respondents called the  authorities' policy on the return of Artsakh residents and ensuring  their living conditions in Armenia extremely negative, 6.8% - rather  negative, 5.3% - very positive, 4.9% - rather positive, and 7.4% -  found it difficult to answer.

At the same time, according to Sargsyan, when asked whether they  would participate in the 2026 parliamentary elections, 9.8% of  respondents gave a definitive negative answer, 10.7% answered rather  not, 52.5% - they would definitely participate, and another 17.6% -  they would rather participate. "Such a high figure of people ready to  participate "Participation in the elections demonstrates citizens'  understanding of the importance of their participation for the  country's future," the politician said.

He acknowledged, however, that 38%-40% of respondents said they had  no idea who to vote for.  "However, respondents said they wanted to  see coalitions, not individual political forces," Sargsyan added.

In turn, Narine Dilbaryan, a member of the "Together" movement,  speaking about the survey results, emphasized that they demonstrate  people's desire to participate in social and political processes that  influence Armenia's future. Furthermore, according to her, the survey  results show that the ruling Civil Contract party's program, adopted  in 2021, has failed not only in foreign policy and the Artsakh issue,  but also in the socioeconomic sphere. "The survey showed that  citizens have become interested in both foreign policy and security  issues, and that people don't feel their well-being is improving and  even notice a decline, which also explains their desire to  participate in elections. However, the main problem today is that  they don't know who to vote for," Dilbaryan noted.

As a reminder, parliamentary elections in Armenia are scheduled for  June 7, 2026.
