Spokesman of the ruling Republican Party of Armenia (RPA) Eduard Sharmazanov has commented on presidential candidate Raffi Hovannisian’s spokesman Hovsep Khurshudyan’s statement on the large number of election frauds reported.

“Both the campaign and the voting process prove that the elections are following their normal, democratic course, with several members of the election headquarters of Heritage party and Armenian National Congress (ANC), as well as observer missions also stating this. 2013 presidential vote will apparently be the best, with the smallest number of election frauds reported,” Mr Sharmazanov said.
