„The bought vote cannot change the situation in the country, because based on previous statistics on bought vote, the Anti-Corruption Fund conducts several such field studies with subsequent analysis. The presence of one or another parliamentary group can be increased. It's a big problem, and to me the bigger problem is not that they actually buy them, but that it's very demoralizing to other people. This trend will strengthen”, commented in the studio of “Wake Up” on Nova TV the director of the Anti-Corruption Fund Boyko Stankushev.
„There is a bought vote because there is a low voter turnout. At high activity, it will have absolutely no meaning. But people say they will not vote because there is a bought vote. The medicine against him is the high voter turnout”, explained the political analyst Georgi Harizanov.
According to Stankushev, it is very difficult for ordinary employees of the Ministry of Internal Affairs to prove who are the persons involved in vote buying. “The problem of which are the regions where votes are sold is a separate issue,” he also pointed out.
„Once again, there is no adequate election campaign, there are extremely weak messages and political marketing, no energy is transmitted to the people by the politicians,” added Harizanov.
