In 22.42% of the sections there are discrepancies in the reported votes in the protocol and those from the flash memories of the machines. This is shown by an analysis conducted with artificial intelligence by the NGO "Democratic Center" of the results of the early parliamentary elections on 10/27/2024. There was a deviation between 5730 and 9918 votes (0.24% to 0.41% of all valid votes for a candidate/list).

An analysis of the election results is carried out using artificial intelligence as follows
way:

1. All machine-readable data from SUEMG is extracted from the page of the CEC
- https://results.cik.bg/pe202410/opendata/export.zip
2. All protocol results are retrieved from the CEC
page https://results.cik.bg/pe202410/opendata/spreadsheet.zip
3. A script is used that extracts the files from each section and collects them in
common analysis data file
4. The number of votes counted for each section and each
is compared candidate/party between the information entered in the protocol by the CIC and the data from the flash
the memories of SUEMG
5. 3 calculation options are created:
a. Option 1 – For the difference between the number of recorded votes from the protocol and
flash memory is taken only in which the number of votes in
flash memory exceeds the number of votes from the protocol. (Appendix 1)
b. Option 2 – For the difference between the number of recorded votes from the protocol and
flash memory, all votes, except those from sections, are taken in
which has no flash memory readable by the machine
c. Option 3 - For the difference between the number of recorded votes from the protocol and
the flash memory is taken all the votes for which they are reported
