Election day for Bulgarians in Turkey began with tension, chaos and scandals. Long lines formed in the Avcilar district of Istanbul due to the declarations that every voter must fill out. According to the plan, this would be done online. On Sunday morning, however, the commission decided that those who did not fill out the document beforehand should do so on the spot, but outside the section. Then the defenders arrived at the scene and a new meeting of the commission was called. The exact opposite decision was made: the statements will be completed within the section itself, BNR reported.
This caused chaos, delays, and queues, and maintaining physical distance became nearly impossible due to the crowds. Many suspected that this was being done to prevent them from voting.
In Turkey, there are a total of 35 sections in this election. Due to the coronavirus, a curfew has been introduced in the country, which does not apply to Bulgarians.
In the city of Corlu, where one of the largest Bulgarian communities is located, there were also queues, Nova TV reported. The biggest difficulty was again the mandatory declarations.
Several buses with voters from Kardzhali have arrived in Kardzhali, Nova TV reported. Some people received free tickets and PCR tests.
