February 5 is the deadline for district governors to hold consultations on the composition of the District Election Commissions for the parliamentary elections on April 4. The Central Election Commission (CEC) must appoint the district commissions not later than February 12, BTA has reported.

The vaccination plan will be amended and all participants in the election process will be included in the third phase of the process. These are the members of the sectional election commissions, the district commissions and the CEC, Health Minister Kostadin Angelov said during a government meeting. Deputy Prime Minister Tomislav Donchev has pointed out the ambition for the entire election administration of 80,000 people to be vaccinated voluntarily.
