After a sleepless night and a 17-hour sitting, the MPs from the parliamentary Legal Committee accepted and brought to the plenary hall for the final second reading the changes to the Electoral Code. With the votes of GERB, BSP and MRF, the paper ballot has been returned. With 12 votes "for" and 11 "against" the proposal of GERB-SDS to not have a multi-mandate electoral district outside the country was accepted. Electronic remote voting is also abolished.
When they do not have a constituency, Bulgarian citizens abroad cannot exercise a preferential vote, said Nadezhda Yordanova from "Democratic Bulgaria".
MP Hamid Hamid from MRF said that there was a lack of methodology, how many mandates and from where they would be taken, for the constituency outside Bulgaria. Тhere are about 2 million Bulgarians living outside the country, and that makes nearly 80 mandates, Hamid Hamid said.
