Bulgaria's Central Election Commission is examining the possibility of a 2-in-1 vote if the presidential and parliamentary elections are held on the same date in November. President Rumen Radev has already announced that he will seek a "rational solution" to hold both votes simultaneously. 

Tests of the voting machines are forthcoming, with which this time you will have to vote with two types of ballots. Over 11,200 devices have been provided so far for the country and abroad, and in a few days it will become clear how many more machines will have to be bought. 
According to the law, machine voting is mandatory for sections with more than 279 voters.
