Bulgarians voted at 66 polling stations across Germany. Berlin has five, each of which is equipped with a voting machine. Election day is going smoothly. So far just over 800 people have voted, which compared to the 9 June elections is slightly more, Marin Yotov, who is a member of an election commission in the German capital, told Radio Bulgaria.
"So far we have not encountered any difficulties. There are machines in all polling stations and people vote more or less equally by machine and on paper. All those who come are very hopeful that there will be a change and that Bulgaria can move forward. This is what motivates them to vote in the first place."
A known issue that may affect turnout, according to Marin, is that students in Berlin are currently on vacation and some parents may be out of town.
The news Marin expects to hear at the end of election day is that politicians will be willing to compromise so that a government can be formed that is in the best interests of Bulgaria and its citizens.
