Prof. Konstantinov: Radev's requests for a new project to get involved in management are becoming more and more serious

If the Constitutional Court rules that Velichie crosses the 4 percent barrier, if this change in the database leads to such a thing, then GERB will lose 3 mandates, the next, second and third parties will lose 1 or 2 each, and 2-3 more parties will lose 1 mandate each. In general, the GERB will suffer the most, explained the mathematician

There will be no total counting of the elections, at most the result in individual sections will be declared invalid, i.e. will be removed from the database, but new elections in the relevant sections will not be held, because it is within the power of the Constitutional Court to cancel one result, but it cannot replace it with another result. The result of this will be the loss of 1-3 mandates for a given party. This is what he said in the program "Metronome" on Radio "Focus" the mathematician and expert on electoral issues Prof. Mihail Konstantinov.

"If the Constitutional Court rules that "Majesty" crosses the 4 percent barrier, if this change in the database leads to such a thing, then GERB will lose 3 mandates, the next, second and third will lose 1 or 2 each, and 2-3 more parties will lose 1 each mandate. In general, GERD will suffer the most".

The case with the electronic voting was again present, and the expert again pointed out the fact that the countries in Europe have not dealt with this case for 20 years. "People make choices to change their policies, not to check one technical solution or another. And political goals are not achieved with technical solutions, political goals are achieved with political means", he is categorical.

According to Prof. Konstantinov, only the court can rule on the presence of corporate, clientelistic vote-buying, of which there were extremely high suspicions in these elections. And regarding the change in the Electoral Code, the expert is adamant that it is very difficult to write a completely new law, but it is good to touch on some things that would enslave the quality of the electoral process. "The lack of laws is not a problem in Bulgaria. Almost all Bulgarian laws are good laws, they are consistent with European norms and are no worse than Western ones. Bulgaria's problem is that these laws are not respected.

Regarding the formation of a government, Prof. Konstantinov pointed out that "if our politicians really have any brains left in their heads, they should form a government". According to him, the requests of President Radev for the creation of a new project, through which he can be involved in the management of the country, are becoming more and more serious. "If he really comes to the political arena, a lot of people will suffer," he is categorical.
