Bulgaria’s National Assembly overturned President Radev’s veto on provisions in the bill of amendments to the Election Code. 124 MP voted in favor and 98 MPs from the Bulgarian Socialist Party and the Movement for Rights and Freedoms voted against.
President Radev vetoed amendments allowing the so-called parallel voting- with machines or paper ballots, which in his words makes machine voting meaningless. President Radev was also against the decision of the lawmakers to transfer to the Central Election Commission the responsibility to determine whether to buy or rent voting machines.
The MPs also rejected President Radev’s veto on the regulation revoking the ban on holding national referendums on topics within the competence of a Grand National Assembly such as topics on adoption of new Constitution, territorial changes, etc.
