''From January 30 to February 14, trainings for all the members of the electoral commissions will be organized. Preparation works are under way,'' CEC Secretary Abram Bakhchagulyan told a news conference today. In his words, this year special attention will be paid to forming the protocols since during the presidential elections most of the shortcoming pinpointed by international observers related to that. ''We will try to accomplish that each member of the commission knows what protocol is and how they are formed,'' the commission secretary said.

In compliance with the requirements and the timeline of the Electoral Code, the electoral commissions will be formed from January 24 to 27. The first sessions will be held at 12:00 of January 28. The sessions will elect chairmen, deputies and secretaries of the commissions.
