DEPUTY PARLIAMENT SPEAKER DENIES KOCHARIAN´S ASPIRATION FOR THIRD TERM

YEREVAN, OCTOBER 20, ARMENPRESS: Deputy parliament chairman Tigran Torosian warned today against pushing for radical changes in the existing Election Law, saying a drastic reduction in the number of seats contested under majoritarian system would result in unpredictable consequences.
Under the existing law, 75 members of the parliament are chosen under the system of proportional representation, while the remaining 56 parliament seats are distributed in single-mandate constituencies across the country.
