Armenia’s Constitutional Court has begun hearings on a case challenging the Central Electoral Commission’s (CEC) decision summarizing the results of the June 7, 2026 parliamentary elections.
The case consolidates applications filed by seven political forces contesting the CEC’s June 14 decision on the official election results.
The appeals were submitted by the Strong Armenia Alliance, Wings of Unity Party, Democracy Law Discipline Party, Prosperous Armenia Party, For the Republic Party, the Armenia Alliance, and the New Force Reformist Party.
At a procedural session held on June 21, the Constitutional Court accepted the applications for consideration and, noting that they concern the same issue, merged them into a single case. Constitutional Court Judge Edgar Shatiryan has been appointed as the rapporteur.
The hearings are being conducted under an oral procedure.
The Civil Contract Party has been involved in the proceedings as a third party, while the Prosecutor General’s Office, the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and the Anti-Corruption Committee are participating as respondents.
Constitutional Court judges Artak Zeynalyan and Vladimir Vardanyan are not taking part in the proceedings after the Court determined that they could be perceived as having a potential bias.
According to the official results announced by the CEC, three political forces secured seats in the new National Assembly following the June 7 elections. Civil Contract won 64 seats, the Strong Armenia Alliance received 29 seats, and the Armenia Alliance obtained 12 seats.
