  • OSCE Office for Democratic Institutions and Human Rights Election Observation Mission Republic of Armenia Parliamentary Elections, 2 April 2017
    OSCE Office for Democratic Institutions and Human Rights Election Observation Mission Republic of Armenia Parliamentary Elections, 2 April 2017 INTERIM REPORT 21 February – 14 March 2017 17 March 2017 I. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY • On 29 December 2016, the president of the Republic of Armenia called parliamentary elections for 2 April. Following a referendum held on 6 December 2015, the Constitution was amended changing Armenia’s political system from a semi-presidential to a parliamentary one. These will be the first elections held under a new proportional electoral system. • Parliamentary elections are regulated by a comprehensive but complex legal framework, which was significantly amended in 2016 through an inclusive reform process that was seen by most OSCE/ODIHR EOM interlocutors as a step forward in building overall confidence in the electoral process. A number of previous OSCE/ODIHR recommendations have been addressed. Civil society organizations were initially involved in the discussions of the draft Electoral Code, but did not endorse the final text, as their calls to ease restrictions on citizen observers were not addressed. • The elections are administered by a three-tiered system, comprising the Central Election Commission (CEC), 38 Territorial Election Commissions (TECs), and 2,009 Precinct Election Commissions (PECs). The CEC regularly holds open sessions and publishes its decisions on its website. The PECs were formed by the TECs on 11 March. Some OSCE/ODIHR EOM interlocutors expressed concerns about PECs capacity to deal with the new voting procedures. • Voter registration is passive and based on the population register. OSCE/ODIHR EOM interlocutors generally assessed the accuracy of the voter list positively.

The first parliamentary elections after the referendum were held on April 2, 2017; they were soon followed by municipal elections in Armenia’s capital on May 14, 2017. During the national elections several Armenian NGOs organized an unprecedentedly comprehensive observation mission, by jointly having observers in about 87% of the republic’s polling stations, while the oppositional Yelk alliance claims to have been able to send proxies to all of Yerevan’s polling stations during the municipal elections. However, the public discourse in Armenia holds that the core of violations took place outside the polling stations.
