Atanas Slavov is the leader of the list in Stara Zagora.

The District Election Commission in Stara Zagora refused to register the list of Democratic Bulgaria, led by Atanas Slavov, a constitutional lawyer and lecturer at Sofia University.

The reason – the candidate list and the power of attorney were not signed by the representatives of the union Hristo Ivanov and Atanas Atanasov, as required by the Electoral Code, and a signature visualizing electronic signing was placed on them.

The decision of the commission states that the driver Atanas Slavov was invited to certify the documents, but he announced that it was not necessary. After that, the lawyer from “Democratic Bulgaria” Nadezhda Yordanova sent additional documents by e-mail, but the address was not specified as official by the association. Finally, Magdalena Ovcharova from Democratic Bulgaria brought a flash drive with documents, but at 6:02 p.m.

The decision of the district commission can be appealed within three days, which is likely to make the merger.
