Voters in the EU countries will be able to vote for candidates for both the Bulgarian and the European Parliament, while those outside the EU will only elect MPs for the Bulgarian National Assembly as in the polling stations there will be voting machines and paper ballots available, CEC Chair Kamelia Neykova told BNR.

On June 9 this year the Bulgarians will simultaneously elect their representatives in the National Assembly and European Parliament.

"In stations in our diplomatic representations and in consulates in countries outside the European Union, it will be possible to vote for National Assembly and for European Parliament, if the voter has a current address in the EU as of March 9," Kamelia Neikova added.

In the 2 in 1 vote, Bulgarian citizens will be able to choose between 22 parties and 11 coalitions.
