By 11.00 am, no signals about serious violations of the electoral process were submitted, Bulgaria’s caretaker Minister of Interior Boyko Rashkov announced. Several thousand police officers are guarding the polling stations in Bulgaria.
The Prosecutor’s Office and the Ministry of Interior are working in parallel at today’s elections. There will be a unit on duty with the Supreme Cassation Prosecutor’s Office. It will summarize information about crimes and electoral fraud. Citizens and non-governmental organizations will be able to signal the district prosecutor’s offices at their emails.
