Polling stations close in Armenia
The presidential election is over in Armenia. All of 1923 polling stations closed at 8 p.m.

The CEC has received two complaints and one report that will not affect the final outcome of the election, CEC member Karen Poladyan said.

"A complaint came from 10/35 polling station where arrested persons voted. Another complaint was received from 20/13 polling station but it proved false later. It was also reported about inappropriate ballot at the polling stations. This information can't affect the final results of the election," he said.

7 alerts on incidents during the election were received by hotline of prosecutor general's office.

The Armenian courts reported receipt of 53 applications, 42 of which were complied.

The Armenian Ombudsman's office has received 20 applications on violations. They are mostly about conveyance of voters to the polling stations and parking of buses too close to them.
