Today is a day of reflection. Any agitation is prohibited. According to preliminary lists, just over 6 million and 732 thousand people have the right to vote.
In these elections, our compatriots abroad will vote with a record number of sections – 465. Voting abroad will be only with ballots, but in our country in 9,398 sections, voters will be able to vote with paper or machine.
409 are the mobile voting sections for people with disabilities.
End of the electoral campaign
Ballots and voting machines are already being distributed to sectional electoral commissions, but the problem of hiring for mobile polls is becoming more serious. There are 51 mobile teams to attend to quarantined voters in Sofia. There are a total of 185 for the country. The right to vote can also be exercised in the COVID compartments. There are 88 sections.
A CEC meeting with the line minister ended around 6pm today. It was clear to her that the delivery of machines to the sections is going according to plan and is expected to be completed by the end of the day. Today at 7 pm no official sign of violation of the electoral campaign has been received.
Tomorrow’s election day starts at 7 o’clock. It will last up to 20 hours. If there are still people willing to vote, it will most likely expand.
Today in some areas there are chaos and queues precisely because of the delivery of ballots and machines to the sections.
Despite the prearranged hours in front of the Haskovo Municipality at 8 in the morning there was a crowd of people. The section commissions had to wait hours until they were summoned one by one to collect the ballots and disinfectants. There was also chaos in the delivery of machines. “Today’s task is to get to 9,400 without two sections to get to one machine. This is not such a simple job,” said CEC spokesman Dimitar Dimitrov.
To avoid tensions tomorrow, an organization has been created. “There will be insured employees who will make sure there is no accumulation. There will also be employees who will disinfect common areas,” said Katya Demireva, director of the Haskovo Youth Center.
However, the main problem is still those responsible for the mobile sections. It is not yet clear whether there will be enough mobile teams on Election Day. “There are three people in each mobile sectional electoral commission, a total of 18 people. In the absence of those people, it will most likely be closed,” said Ilian Ivanov, president of 16 REC-Plovdiv.
To address the problem, the CEC provides additional funding. “It will be for the staff who will carry out activities in the presentation of section protocols to the district commissions,” said Dimitar Dimitrov.
On the day of reflection, the Veliko Tarnovo center was closed to cars for several hours due to the distribution of electoral papers, and in Stara Zagora the army set up a tent camp in the old Augusta Trayana complex.
“These tents are to be able to bring people home, not to wait outside, because you know that the rooms in the library, the corridors that they will enter are not that big,” said Teodora Krumova, president of Stara. Zagora REC.
The day before the vote, the Central Election Commission reminded voters what to keep in mind. “Simple, don’t stop marking the party,” said Dimitar Dimitrov. Otherwise, the vote will be considered invalid.
31 are electoral districts, 30 parties and coalitions will embark on the battle for the new parliament. The candidates for deputies are 6895.
