Heritage demands using common ink instead of vanishingMay 6, 2012 - 13:29 AMT PanARMENIAN.Net - Election headquarters of Heritage party has been receiving alarm calls since morning; citizens reported that a few minutes after the voting, the stamp put in their passports vanished, though it was expected to hold about 12 hours. Central Electoral Committee (CEC) was reported on this. It said the inkpot had to be shaken before putting the stamp and instructed the committees to use the stamps properly. However, as of 10:30 am, Heritage still received reports that the situation is no better, and even after shaking the stamp the mark disappears within one hour. Heritage's office says that under current situation, when the rules become impossible to follow, the only solution is replacement of the vanishing ink with regular one. Otherwise prevention of double voting which was to be ensured by stamping the passports' last page will become far more complicated, thus clouding the legitimacy of the elections.
