Paid and free airtime for agitation and counter-agitation of Constitutional Reform will be provided 30 days before the December 6 Constitutional referendum, says Tigran Mukuchyan, the head of the Central Electoral Commission (CEC).
In his words, both agitation and counter-agitation can be launched immediately after the president signs the decree announcing the referendum day. "President signed the decree on 8 October, so the campaign has got underway too," Mukuchyan said.
He said that free airtime will be provided only to the parliamentary forces, with the campaign silence day to start on December 4 at night.
The referendum will be held on December 6. According to ArmInfo's sources, the campaign headquarters will be headed by Prime Minister Hovik Abrahamyan, who will take a leave for that period. "No!" Movement will be headed by Levon Zurabyan, the head of the Armenian National Congress.
