Significant figures for the BSP emerge from the new composition of the National Council of the BSP after the vote of the delegates of the 50th Jubilee Congress. This came after a long night of voting and an even longer vote recount this morning. 692 fought for 113 seats.

The voting commission has already announced the results and PSE President Sergei Stanishev, Georgi Pirinski, Angel Naidenov, Atanas Merdjanov, Valeri Zhablyanov, Georgi Bozhinov, Dimitar Dabov, Katya Nikolova, Velislava Dareva, Krassimir Yankov, Yuri Aslanov and other members of the opposition remain outside the plenary session. . Georgi Gergov enters as a delegate representative of the Plovdiv Socialists.

Yesterday, former leader Mihail Mikov withdrew from the plenary session.

However, the National Council includes Ninova’s current MP Kiril Dobrev, who was his main competitor in the leadership vote. In addition to Ninova’s other deputy, Denitsa Zlateva.

902 of the 976 congressional delegates stood for the BSP elections. To be elected as a candidate for member of the National Council, he must have received 452 votes, more than half of the delegates.

As the only legitimately elected was Krum Zarkov with 487 votes, the electoral commission proposed that Congress decide to fill the National Council by consensus.

Therefore, Zarkov became the favorite of the congress. Until now, Stefan Danailov has always been one of them in congress, and Dora Yankova generally ranks after him, but now she is legitimately entering as the leader of the Union of Socialist Women.

They are followed by Yanaki Stoilov with 451 votes, Georgi Svilenski with 450 votes and Rumen Gechev with 442 votes. The new composition also includes Alexander Simov, Christian Vigenin, Borislav Gutsanov, Atanas Zafirov, Vyara Emilova, Kostadin Paskalev, Boris Tsvetkov, Radoslav Gaydarski, Rumen Ovcharov, Asen Gagauzov, Brigo Asparuhov, Donka Mihaylova, Ivan Dragom Cheynev. Evgeni Kirilov, Vessela Lecheva, Vasil Antonov, Dencho Boyadzhiev, Anton Kutev, Stanislav Vladimirov and others.

Among the new faces of the National Council is rally champion Krum Donchev.

The youth had a separate list: 114 people fought for 37 seats in the youth quota on the National Council. Among them are MEP Tsvetelina Penkova, former MEP Momchil Nekov, Rumen Ovcharov’s daughter Teodora. Anna, the daughter of Georgi Pirinski, remained below the line as a reserve, but left the second round and did not enter the plenary session.

The new red plenary will be 187 people – it was increased by two because the last three of its members were classified with the same number of votes.

32 of the members of the National Council are delegated representatives of the regional structures. Youth Union leaders, women and veterans are rightfully included.

In fact, the occupation of the National Council was the great battle of this congress, because it marked the end of Cornelia Ninova’s battle with the internal opposition. The leader managed to impose herself and bring more of her people to the future Plenum Network, thus providing support and comfort in decision-making. And the voice of the opposition will now be heard less and less.

During the 4 years of her first term, Ninova repeatedly complained that she could not work with this composition of the National Council. He embarrassed her for her decision to remove Stanishev from the list for the European elections. And recently, after the start of the campaign for the leader and the growing tensions between Ninova and Dobrev, the leader was blamed for some important decisions.

In fact, the National Council is the body that makes important decisions in the BSP in the period between Congress meetings and determines the political activity of the party. Among them are the approval of the leaders of the lists for the parliamentary elections, the candidates for president and vice president, and all other nominations that the Socialist Party makes for state offices. The plenary also makes the decision to participate in the executive branch. By statute, it meets at least once every two months.

A second round was held for the chairman of the All Party Control Commission between his current head Valya Bogdanova, who received 386 votes in the vote, and the head of the Red CEC for direct election, Emil Voynov, who received 374 votes.

However, for the first time, the second round was held openly, because it was announced that the members of the polling stations did not exist and there was no way to form new ones.

Thus, Voinov became the head of the control commission, receiving 379 votes, and Bogdanova got 178 votes.

The leader of the Sofia Socialists, Kaloyan Pargov, demanded a quorum check and a new vote. There is a quorum, as can be seen from the results of the two candidates, said meeting chair Yanaki Stoilov.

And after re-election, Voinov was re-elected head of the OPCK with 384 votes against 133 for Bogdanova.
