Yerevan resident Zarouhie Mouradyan told Hetq that it took her 30 minutes and raising a bit of a stink to convince local election officials to file an official report when she found that others had voted in her stead at yesterday’s constitutional change referendum.

She uncovered the infraction when she arrived at Yerevan’s 10/23 polling station at the Khko Aper Library.

It seems that another person had already signed where her name showed on the voter roll. Someone else had signed instead of her son, living overseas for the past two years.

“The signatures were a scribble,” Mouradyan told Hetq, adding that when she complained election officials just sat there gazing at the floor.
