The Commission announced in a briefing that all sections of the country are working. As for those found abroad, there is only one that has not been discovered due to the pandemic situation. Local authorities have not allowed this to happen.

“We have several complaints. It is possible that some of you have realized that there are problems with the lists in Dobrich. They are not as categorical as in Tarnovo. The displacements are peripheral. This only applies to automatic voting,” said the CCA.

According to the CCA, the highest participation was registered in Sliven, more than 24% and the lowest, in Silistra.

“There is a procedure that ensures that the votes cast by the machine will not be lost after the machine breaks down. Voting will simply continue through ballots. The votes cast will be counted,” the CEC announced.
