The Public Council with the Central Election Commission believes that elections can be organized amid a pandemic, the council’s chairperson Rositsa Mateva told bTV. Postal voting in Bulgaria should not be planned, because we do not have such experience during elections, Rositsa Mateeva contends. "We have proposed a pilot project that will initially cover the Bulgarians abroad," Rositsa Mateva explained. According to this proposal, ballot papers will be sent by the diplomatic and consular representations and will be counted there, Rositsa Mateva specified.
