Yerevan Municipal Council Election: Former Mayor Taron Margaryan Skips Voting
It turns out that Taron Margaryan, who resigned as Yerevan mayor this past July, didn’t vote in today’s Yerevan Municipal Council election.
This was the answer given to this reporter by Hakob Sahakyan, president of the 1/19 polling station electoral commission, where Margaryan is registered to vote.
Sahakyan said that the only member of the Margaryan family that did vote was the former mayor’s 18-year-old son Nahapet.
Taron Margaryan resigned after serving as Yerevan’s mayor since 2009.
While activists in Yerevan had been calling for Margaryan's resignation, the protests never achieved widespread traction.
