CEC data for processed 100% protocols abroad

In total, there were 122 machines that did not work for various technical reasons, and in the relevant sections, voting was only with paper ballots - this was announced by the spokesperson of the Central Election Commission, Rositsa Mateva. It has now become clear that there have been cases of the devices printing out white, blurry or shorter ballots:

"The paper that the printing house delivered to the BNB has the same requirements and characteristics as the paper used in previous elections. We will still look for the reasons and analyze why 122 machines did not work in these elections".

Mateva also said that the CEC has received reports of quite a few wrong protocols, one of the reasons being that the sectional commissions have summed up the preferential votes.
