A protest against the comeback of paper ballot is being organized today at 6:30 p.m. in front of the National Assembly, by Democratic Bulgaria, the Green Movement party and “We Continue the Change”. They point out that the "Paper Coalition" - GERB, BSP and MRF, have literally attacked the free and fair elections.

"They returned the paper ballot while working in the dark, turned the voting machines into ordinary printers, canceled the electoral constituency of Bulgarians abroad, made opening sections abroad as difficult as possible and closed the Public Council to the CEC", the political forces organizing the protest said.
