Citizens can practice voting by machine in several places in Sofia.

Machine Voting with demo version is a simulation of the vote for parliament that will be held on October 2 and is free.

The aim is to make citizens more aware of how to vote by machine.

A complete list of locations by electoral district, where an information campaign to demonstrate and explain machine voting will be held, is published on the pages of the three Sofia District Election Commissions (RIC).

The head of the Metrology Institute, Snezhana Spasova, was dismissed from her position

395 machines with a demo version have already been delivered to the country, and 12 machines have been provided to parties and coalitions registered to participate in the elections for the purposes of their election campaign, the Central Election Commission announced last week and BTA.

How to vote on a demo machine:

On the machine with a demo version of the ballot it is written "National Assembly Elections October 2, 2022."

, as well as "Place the card in the lower slot of the machine".

The map in question is provided by representatives of RIC, the regional administration or the municipal administrations, which will be in the role of sectional election commissions.

After the voter places the card in the slot, a click should be heard.

Then the ballot will appear on the device.

It includes names of demo parties and coalitions, as well as their numbers.

At the bottom of the page, there is a "Next" option to continue.

You can also go back with the "Previous Page" option if you want to change your selection.

For preference selection, candidate numbers are located on the right hand side of the ballot.

In case you have not marked a party, coalition or independent candidate, the "View" option will return you "Back to the ballot" to make your choice.

If you have already made your choice by pressing the "View" option, two options will appear - to vote or to change your choice.

If you press "Change Selection", the simulator will return you to the ballot again and the process repeats until a vote is cast.

If you select "Vote", you have already cast your vote and you will receive a receipt from the machine.

The receipt is placed in the receipt box.
