The parties will decide after the hearing of the CEC chief next week
The second attempt of the Speaker of the National Assembly Iva Miteva to tell the parties which date they liked from the calendar for the presidential vote also failed. After all parliamentary groups remained silent at the first presidential council at the beginning of the week, today Miteva convened a second presidential council on the subject.
Again, representatives of parliamentary groups have remained silent and have not suggested possible dates for the presidential election. At the invitation of Iva Miteva that the time is running out and within a week the constitutional 60-day deadlines, which are starting to run, have been justified, the leaders of the PG have justified themselves by waiting to see how the attempt for a cabinet will end in the third term. is definitely going to the parliamentary elections, participants in the meeting said.
This forced the Speaker of the National Assembly to come out of the fruitless situation with the proposal to hear the head of the Central Election Commission Kamelia Neykova. So next week on Wednesday, Neykova will come to parliament early in the morning to explain to the presidential council the technical readiness of the commission for two-in-one elections and probably say that the commission will comply with whatever they decide.
At the same time, on the sidelines, already in front of the media, the topic was commented on more generally by political formations.
If there is a “two in one” election, it will be a “two in one” competition, we will not oppose any dates, said Tatiana Doncheva from PG “Stand up BG! We are coming!”. According to her, “if there is no understanding, forcing someone to come to their senses is not a realistic task.” We, whatever was up to us, I think we have done so far and will do from now on, said the MP. The key is in “There are such people”, she is categorical.
According to the co-chairman of “There is such a people” Hristo Ivanov, it is time for the parliament to start forming its decision when to schedule the presidential elections. Two-in-one elections are not a good option, because the logic of presidential and parliamentary elections is very different. But it will be very difficult to get around this option, judging by the way things are going.
“When two elections are mixed, the agitation becomes mixed,” is the fear of Social Democrat Georgi Gokov. According to him, there are many questions at the moment.
“We will never find a good option. When two elections are mixed, the election campaign becomes mixed, but the best for democracy must be done, if I may say so, so that Bulgarians can make the right choice,” he said. he added.
