The Central Electoral Committee publicized the ultimate results of the elections 1 week afterward, on April 9.

Therefore 2.588.468 citizens have had the right to participate in the elections, 1.575.786 of which have partaken. 6679 ballots have been considered invalid. Thus, 4 forces have entered the parliament: The Republican Party of Armenia has received 770.441 votes, “Tsarukyan” alliance – 428.836 votes, “Yelq” bloc – 122.065 votes and Armenian Revolutionary Federation – 103.048 votes.

The members of Central Electoral Committee signed the report, but before making a respective decision they examined “Congress-ANC” alliance’s application whereby the alliance demands to consider the results of the elections invalid. The Central Electoral Committee rejected the alliance’s application.
