Bulgarian Socialist Party urges prosecutor’s office to react promptly to reports of vote manipulation

 The numerous reports of vote manipulation, of rigging ballots, of adding votes, of vote-buying, of coercion and controlled voting which have been sweeping over the public domain following the election for parliament, call for an immediate answer by the institutions which are called upon to monitor the legality of the election, reads a position by the Executive Bureau of the Bulgarian Socialist Party-United Left.  

If the analysis of the election violations, which caretaker PM Dimitar Glavchev has stated he would hand over to the interior minister, does not shed light on the organizers of the election rigging, that would cast suspicion on the independence of the law enforcement authorities from under-the-table pressure, the BSP says, and goes on to demand prompt reaction by the prosecutor’s office to prevent the irreversible undermining and destruction of parliamentarianism – the fundament of our democratic system.
