Prosperous Armenia distributes promised electoral bribes, paper says

Several days ago Hraparak paper reported that Prosperous Armenia party is actively engaged in listing its potential voters in Armenia’s Vayots Dzor province, particularly in the town of Vayk for the upcoming parliamentary elections, promising 25 kg of flour to each.

The party’s office in Vayk had collected the passports providing receipts instead, which enabled the residents to come fetch the flour shortly.

So, on April 30 and May 1 most people were given their “share”, but some of the list did not get the flour, Hraparak says.

“Some were given AMD 5000 instead of the flour, but people were contented since the 25-kg pack of 1st sort flour cost, namely AMD 5000,” paper concludes.
