A NEW COALITION WILL BE FORMED, "HANRAPETAKAN" (REPUBLICAN) PARTY - THE INITIATOR
"A coalition will be formed, Hanrapetakan" (Republican) party will be the initiator. It can make its selection between "Dashnaktsutyun" (ARF) and "Bargavach Hayastan" (Prosperious Armenia). In this case "Hanrapetakan" will strengthen its position in NA and declare its conditions", said sociologist Aharon Adibekian in the interview to "Azg" daily on May 13. From his point of view the abovementioned three parties will form a coalition in NA, be a majority and pass the resolutions they want.
Evaluating the parliamentary elections of May 12, the sociologist mentioned that they had already forecasted 55-60% of participation in elections, which corresponded to reality: the Central Electoral Commission ratified that 59% of voters participated in the elections. This time people's votes were on reasonable bases, the voters didn't believe in promises and didn't trust in disrupted opposition.
The sociologist had forecasted that, in the case of 55-60 % participation, "Hanrapetakan" party will have 30%, "Bargavach Haiastan" 24% and "Dashanktsutyun" 8-9% of votes. As Aharon Adibekian explained, "Dashnaktsutyun" received 13.1% of votes because "a part of "Bargavach" party's votes went to "Hanrapetakan" and "Dashnaktsutyun" parties. "Dashnaktsutyun" also gained a part of "Orinats erkir" party's votes. The sociologist explained that "Bargavach" gained 15.1% of votes, because the declared number of the party's members (380 thousand) was not real and the functionaries had led the leaders of the party into error.
The sociologist mentioned that their forecasts came true on the whole. Our mistake is within 1%, likes to say Aharon Adibekian.
His forecasts, that Stepan Demirchian's "HJK" (People party of Armenia), Artashes Geghamian's "AM" (National Unity) and Samvel Babaian's "Dashink" would have only 3-6% of votes, was considered as a nonsense. Tigran Karapetian's "JK" party's 25% and "JUK" (Democratic Path), "Democratic party" and "Hnchakian" parties' 5-6% expectations were, of course, groundless. "MAK" (United Labor Party) had also a big chance but the chances must be used.
What about "Jarangutyun" (Heritage) Adibekian didn't have a doubt that it would overcome the 5% barrier. The sociologist is sure that the success of "Jarangutyun" party is because of the personal image and rating of Raffi Hovhannisian and his reliance upon the intellectuals.
The biggest surprise of the elections was the utter defeat of "HJK", "JUK","JK" and other opposition parties.
The head of the pollster center "Sociometre" thinks that we have entered a period, when the voters can do a reasonable voting, and those personalities come to power, who have manifested their abilities in different spheres.
