Raffi Hovannisian’s advantage is his charm - sociologist

YEREVAN. – Raffi Hovannisian’s clear advantage is his charm, sociologists Aharon Adibekyan said.

“Poor people were under his [Raffi Hovannisian] spell,” sociologist said at a press conference on Wednesday.

It seemed women will mainly vote for Hovannisian, sociologist said, expressing confidence that finally women “preferred Serzh Sargsyan.”

Speaking about public opinion polls preceding elections, Adibekyan noted that forecasts on Serzh Sargsyan and Raffi Hovannisian justified themselves. However, incumbent president faced certain obstacles in several regions, for example Shirak, where Hovannisian got majority of votes.
