Bulgarians vote for president on Sunday, in six days' time. There are 28 candidate pairs, each made up of a presidential and a vice-presidential candidate.

Campaigning ends on Friday, and Saturday is a day of reflection.

Polling stations open at 7am on Sunday and close at 8pm. If people are still queuing to vote at 8pm, voting will go on for one more hour.

On 16 October we reported that the ballots for the presidential vote would reach Burgas under heavy police guard. All 751 polling stations in the 2nd Burgas electoral district were due to get paper ballots, while 494 stations in the region will use voting machines.

A runoff, if needed, would be held on 1 November.
