Bulgaria - 54 COMPLAINTS AGAINST ELECTION RESULTS FILED AT COURT IN BULGARIA'S BLAGOEVGRAD - by Rene Beekman
The Administrative Court in Blagoevgrad has so far received 54 complaints, demanding results of the municipal election to be annulled. This was announced by chairman of the court Vasilka Shalamanova, the Focus news agency said. "The election results for Mayor for example, all those who did not make it to the second round are allowed to file a complaint," Shalamanova said. Compared to previous elections, the number of complaints had increased manifold, she said. The cause, according to her, was the increase in number of candidates in the elections.
The Administrative Court in Blagoevgrad would decide this week in the cases against the election results for municipal councilors in Sandanski and Stroumyani, and for mayor in Cherniche and Stroumyani.
