There are no missing polling stations in London: sectional commission member

During the night of July 11-12, Bulgaria’s Central Election Commission did not answer the calls on three telephone lines, given for contact with polling stations in Great Britain, members of election commissions in London said for Nova TV. That is why some members of sectional election commissions visited the Bulgarian Embassy in London. The tension was caused by the fact that three officials of the Central Election Commission had to receive the results of 135 polling stations in a very short period of time.

"There are no missing polling stations. The Central Election Commission has not done their bit", said Tsanka Petrova, a member of the sectional election commission in Ealing, West London. On July 12, the Central Election Commission announced that it had lost contact with an entire polling station in London, which delayed the announcement of the election results.
