Stoev explained why they are worried about the new voting devices. "You know how long it has been commented that the code can be manipulated. These machines, with which we are now voting, were ordered in 2014. For the new machines, we have no guarantee whatsoever who certifies this code

This is not the first time that this has happened to sit at night. I am afraid that the majority does not know what they are voting for. It was stipulated in the transitional and final provisions that the scanners should be delivered within a month. GERB proposed that if we fail to organize the elections, we should return to the previous order. The CEC must begin these actions 55 days before the elections. There is no way to meet the deadline. That is, there is a risk of voting only with paper. This was a slur in the people's eyes. This was stated by the deputy chairman of the Legal Committee and the parliamentary group of “We continue the change-Democratic Bulgaria“ (PP-DB) Stoyu Stoev in the program “Since the day“ on BNT.

The elimination of all guarantees when voting with the new devices is extremely worrying. It is being voted that there will be no second seal, the verification of the ballot number with that on the cob, etc. The entire process is being sabotaged, he pointed out.

Stoev explained why they are worried about the new voting devices. "You know how long it has been commented that the code can be manipulated. These machines that we are voting with now were ordered in 2014. For the new machines, it is planned that we have no guarantee who certifies this code", the MP noted.

The Central Election Commission has checked the discrepancies and in most cases it turned out to be human error. All guarantees fall for the certification of the new machines. Their real intention is not to certify the machines, but to vote only with paper, so that the electoral process can be manipulated, he explained he.

If the current voter lists are used, we risk 500-600,000 dead people "voting" in the elections. We insist on introducing a requirement to have a valid ID card in order to vote, Stoyu Stoev also said.
