The Central Election Commission (CEC) has received 104 complaints that Prime Minister Rumen Radev broke the Electoral Code by campaigning for Iliana Yotova. The commission is discussing them today.

The first complaint came on Monday from the initiative committee of Andrey Gyurov and Georgi Kandev. It followed the release of Radev's statement backing Yotova by the Council of Ministers' press office. By Tuesday there were 72 complaints.

The prime minister again denied any breach in parliament today. "Calling on people to vote for Iliana Yotova does not break the Electoral Code," Radev said. He said no account had been taken of what stage things were at when he spoke, compared with the start of the campaign.

Some CEC members accept that argument and do not see campaigning. The member who presented the case believes there was no breach, because the prime minister is not a civil servant.

Another commission member disagrees. "I do not believe the Council of Ministers can act as a campaign headquarters and press office. Allowing such a precedent undermines the fairness of the vote," he said.

The commission also looked at a case from a polling station in the town of Elena. A voter said he voted for candidate No. 13 Boris Anzov, and that the machine voting and printing went without problems. The next day the station showed 0 votes for No. 13, and he asked where his vote had gone.

CEC member Stoyanka Baleva said some of the figures in the protocols had been written in the wrong places. For example, votes for No. 7 were entered against No. 8, so the data shifted up by one number. After the protocols were corrected, candidate No. 13 has 2 votes at the Elena station. Baleva said the data has been cleaned up and there should be no more discrepancies.

The CEC approved the ballot template for the second round. It is one page long, and the tickets keep their numbers.

The campaign ends at midnight on Friday.
