Heritage Campaign Reaches Tavush and Gegharkunik

Yerevan—Today, May 2, Heritage Party candidates and volunteers took the campaign bus “Toward Victory” on a journey to Ijevan, Berd, Paravakar, and other towns in the marzes of Gegharkunik and Tavush. During various public gatherings, Raffi K. Hovannisian and other Heritage candidates exchanged ideas and opinions with their fellow citizens, and presented the party’s platform.

Meanwhile in Yerevan, Heritage volunteers continued their grassroots effort to distribute party newspapers, brochures, and other campaign material.

Also today, Heritage representatives attended the launch of “Political Parties of the Republic of Armenia Participating in the National Assembly Elections 2007—Voter’s Guidebook.” The event, which took place at the Tekeyan Cultural Center, was organized by the Foundation for Civil and Social Development, and sponsored by the OSCE, USAID, Counterpart International, and Civic Advocacy Support Program Armenia. The guidebook, with a press run of 9,000 copies, summarizes and compares the programs of the political parties—including Heritage—that are participating in the forthcoming parliamentary elections.
