Notes on the Campaign
Not that I am following closely all the developments, but some observations, from what I have read in the news:

LTP: he is running a negative campaign and appears to have lost the momentum. He gets personal and at some point people will turn away. He needs a positive message. He is also, so far at least, targeting small constituencies, where voter apathy is dominant. He should concentrate on large cities and towns.

SS: stage managed events, warm-up acts my entertainers, public prayers in a church... He also promises prosperity for all and better governance. The voters should be asking themselves whether he is capable of delivering on these promises.

I do not really follow other candidates.

Anyway, without televised debates, it is all pointless.

Ter–Petrosyan merely collected supporters of Demirchyan and Sargisyan. Without them he will never get thousands of people listening him on the square. He plans to replay street mobilization card when Sargisyan rely on administrative resource.

Karapetich, Arthur and Geghamyan are doing their job – trying to still LPT's voter. Manukyan continue its unfruitful campaign and Vahan just expect those who do not like SS and LTP to vote for him. He actually can do nothing, Levon and Serge are actively working for him :)
