1. Haskovo - Ami (Captain Andreevo, also related to Taki) and Semkata work in the field.
2. Gabrovo - Buy diapers in Gabrovo and Sevlievo. The insolence has reached such proportions that meetings are held attended by high-level police officers (from Sevlievo), as proof that the Ministry of Internal Affairs will not interfere with vote trading. The other buyer for the area is nicknamed The Three Hyksos (XXX).
3. Montana and Vratsa - Mitko Galata.
4. In the Sofia region (Ikhtiman, Botevgrad and Samokov) Rado Sunceto was born. Many votes are expected there for the former interior minister Kalin Stoyanov and a fresh party member under Peevski.
5. In Kostinbrod, a lady with the first name Anelia and nickname Trafficker, as well as the famous D.G. nicknamed Michaud.

We learned this from a post by Ivo Mirchev, who specifies who, how, where and why exercises “trade with influence” in places when it comes to elections. But do you need money, or can you do without it… It turns out that you can do without them. How?

Another election is coming. And what is being talked about… Is it about policies… No. Who cares about policies for the people… There is talk of buying votes, of course. Why? Because this is becoming a common thing for Bulgaria. A whole “food chain” is activated, which is directly related to money, and in our country elections have started to be held quite often. And so “food“ is more.

Why there is vote buying
The people are simple, life is boring – toothy fierce dog! This is what Nikola Vaptsarov wrote in his poem “History“.
The people are poor, and 100 BGN is 100 BGN. The people (the Ministry of Internal Affairs) who deal with election security know very well who "works" where, what money is offered. Yes, this is hard to prove, but if someone wants to prove it, they will.

Let's just go back to the nicknames of the dealers that Ivaylo Mirchev brought out - Kocha, Prucha, Quasimodoto, Ushaka, Psychoto, Pitona, Burgia, Naftata... Classic…
These are the “operational workers”. But someone in the chain “feeds“ with money so that they can also “feed“ those after them - the voters. Here comes the new moment. With money, everyone knows, but there is also a new threat that sounds like this: “You just do it because otherwise you know what will happen?“

What is it about
As elections have become more frequent, few people have unlimited resources. But it is they who emphasize the new. After working with the same people in the “food chain” for a long time, the conversation comes down to “you just do it”. And he, the one in question, “just does it”. It does the same as in other elections, but there is not as much for it as there was before, and sometimes there is nothing. Because if he doesn't do it, he “knows what awaits him”. Usually this works when the person in the “food chain” is directly dependent on the law – understand, he will have a reduced sentence, file, he will not suffer. When the person is like that, “he just does it”.

What is the solution
Whoever “presses”, whatever spring is “wound”, however much money is handed out, it is something “very little” (the impact of vote buying).
“A lot“ is when few vote. “A little“ is when “very“ they vote. If we want to make it a “small” thing, it should be voted as actively as possible (a lot). This is how the bought vote is largely neutralized. BGN 100 is BGN 100, but everyone's vote means much more than a piece of green paper. When we understand it, we will become many. When we become many and are united, Bulgaria will be different. It's simple.
