The Bulgarian Central Election Commission (CEC) organizes today a simulation of remote electronic voting. The test is in connection with the objective of introducing an e-voting option at the 2019 elections for European Parliament members.
Simulations differ from experimental remote e-voting which is planned for 2018. The system for remote electronic voting has been developed by Information Services Company under a contract with CEC and complies with the provisions of the Election Code.
CEC should carry out three simulations by the end of the year – for elections of European Parliament members, for elections of Bulgarian National Assembly members and for elections of mayors.
