It�s Election Day tomorrow and the city is swarming with �Foreigners� from all walks of life. I was at Armenia Hotel tonight and OSCE has taken over at least 1 floor. The news opened with a speech (a prayer) from the Vehapar for the new President. Polling starts at 8am and the media is getting ready. Observation will be strict this year and that�s my take on it, I�m now kicking myself for not being an observer, I should have accepted the invitation from the British Embassy (I wanted the credentials like the badge, arm band, whatever else).

A couple of my work colleagues believe it�s going to be a tight race and for that very reason they will take the day off and travel to their respective regions to cast their vote for the current President and demonstrate their sense of duty to Kocharian. Too bad I don�t have rights to mark my ballot.

Weather wise it�s still snowing and cold. Oh Raffi N they showed Egoyan and gang re Ararat awards on tele tonight.
