The actions of the Ministry of Interior continue to guarantee the fairness of the forthcoming vote for President and for National Assembly and to prevent crimes against the voting rights of citizens. This was stated at a press conference by Interior Minister Boyko Rashkov. It was reported that, at the request of the CEC, an inspection of the voting machines had been carried out. It was attended by representatives of many government agencies, including SANS and the Customs Agency. "Any possibility of misuse of voting devices has been ruled out. We are convinced that the election process will proceed normally," Rashkov concluded.
