They are followed by the Armenian National Congress (ANC) - 7,7%, ARF Dashnaktsutyun -7,4%, Heritage Party – 6,2%, People’s Party– 4,6% and Orinats Yerkir party – 4,1%, whereas 22-23% stated that they will vote for no one. Poghosyan said that some months before elections the poll results are of interest for specialists and parties only, they are not interesting for ordinary people, since public attitude may change dramatically by the time of elections. He also noted that 40-50% of elderly respondents stated on their support to the People’s Party, the Heritage and ANC. While 31% of younger respondents supported Dashnaktsutyun. The public poll engaged 600 residents of Yerevan, and the sociologist assures that the accuracy of the poll is ±3%. Parliamentary elections in Armenia are scheduled for 2012.
