On December 17, 2015, Heriknaz Tigranyan, Legal Adviser of Transparency International Anticorruption Center (TIAC) was the guest of CivilNet. On December 6, 2015 TIAC monitored the referendum as a member of “Citizen Observer” Initiative. According to Heriknaz Tigranyan due to active citizens and NGOs who carried out observation it was possible to represent what really happened. “Citizen Observer” Initiative had more than 1000 observers, who were deployed in 520 polling stations, making 1/3 of Armenia’s precincts. There were obvious differences between the monitored polling stations and those where there was no public oversight. Tigranyan addressed the types of violations registered that day comparing them with previous elections.
