Past daily of Armenia writes as follows, in particular: In recent times, the actions and steps of [PM] Nikol Pashinyan and his political team indicate that the authorities are intensively preparing for election processes. According to the information of Past newspaper, at this phase, Nikol Pashinyan has thrown his MPs "door to door" again; they are in quite active provincial visits, trying to have meetings with people. Our local sources, however, assure us that since the majority of the population, have no wish to "see the face" of the CC [i.e. the ruling Civil Contract Party] members, to put it mildly, the "institute" of administrative levers is being put to use once again. In particular, all local state institutions-enterprises are obligated to undertake the task of ensuring numbers of people; they try to do everything so that "nice shots" are ensured during the meetings.
