Elections

Bulgarian citizens living abroad who want to cast their ballots at the March 26 early elections, but were not included in the electoral rolls, should fill in the necessary declarations at the polling stations, announced BNR.

At 00:00 Bulgarian time, the election campaign officially ends before the elections for Bulgaria's 44th parliament take place on Sunday, March 26.

Saturday is a day for reflection, and agitation is prohibited.

Tomorrow, the final number of polling stations in the country will become known.

Seven agencies will make the exit poll on the day of early parliamentary elections in Bulgaria on March 26, announced from the Central Election Commission (CEC).

A study of the Estat agency on political attitudes of Bulgarians, conducted days before the parliamentary elections on March 26, shows that voter turnout would be between 55 and 60 percent, according to BNR.

The study forecasts that six parties would enter Parliament - GERB, Bulgarian Socialist Party (BSP), Volya (''Will''), United Patriots, DPS and the Reformist Bloc.

Information for the organization of voting abroad for the snap parliamentary elections on March, 26 in Bulgaria will be presented in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. Bulgarians in 70 countries will be able to exercise their right to vote, announced BNR.

Bulgarians abroad will be able to vote in the upcoming snap parliamentary elections on March 26 in a total of 70 countries and 371 voting sections.

The number of sections was determined via a decision of the Central Election Commission (CEC) taken on March 4, while Bulgarians abroad filed declarations to vote out of the country until February 28.

Social boss Korneliya Ninova’s statement that democracy has taken away a lot from Bulgarians has provoked a social media storm ahead of the upcoming general election. 

Turks living in the U.K. will go to polling stations early April for Turkey's April 16 referendum on constitutional changes.

Turkish citizens will be able to cast their votes in London and the Scottish capital, Edinburgh, between April 6 and 9, Turkey's consul general in London said.        

Serbian citizens living abroad eligible to vote in the April 2 presidential election have until March 11 to file their request to be included in the voter roll.

This request, to be submitted to Serbia's diplomatic and consular representative offices, specifies that they intend to cast their ballots in one of the polling stations abroad.

As happens before every election and referendum, a question I frequently come across is about whether the vote will be rigged. Each time I have the same answer: If you guard the voting station, nobody can cheat.
