Electoral fraud schemes are not applicable to machine voting, said the Spokesperson of Bulgaria’s Central Election Commission Tsvetozar Tomov in an interview for Bulgaria ON AIR. "Fraudsters must come up with something new. They are not experts in high technologies and we are not going to witness any attempts aimed to manipulate the voting machines at the forthcoming elections", contended Tsevtozar Tomov.
If a voting machine is damaged, the polling station notifies the Central Election Commission and then switches over to voting with paper ballots. Tsevtozar Tomov voiced confidence that such technical failures will be rare. Machine voting should reduce queues in front of polling stations, as 50 voters can cast their ballots on one voting machine per hour, said Tsvetozar Tomov.
