YEREVAN. - As of Sunday 9:00pm, the Investigative Committee of Armenia received 98 reports which apparently contain elements of voting rights’ violation, which is a Criminal Code offense.

45 of the reports related to Yerevan, 13 to Gegharkunik, 4 to Kotayk, 9 to Lori, 3 to Vayots Dzor, 7 to Aragatsotn, 8 to Tavush, 6 to Shirak, 2 to Armavir and 1 to Syunik provinces.

Armenia held a parliamentary election Sunday for the first time since the new Constitution was approved through a referendum in December 2015. The new National Assembly will have 105 deputies, four of whom—representatives of ethnic minorities.

A total of 2,009 election precincts were open all through the country. This voting will be the only national one in the next five years, as Armenia is transitioning to a parliamentary republic.

Five political parties and four blocs are running for parliament. Political parties have to get 5 percent of votes, whereas the blocs need 7 percent to be elected to the National Assembly of Armenia.
