Members of the mobile election commissions, who will enter the homes of quarantined citizens or Covid-19 hospital wards have called for at least 25 euros of additional remuneration. This is what chairwoman of the District Election Commission in Ruse, Milena Hinkova, has told BNR. The parties have sent an inquiry to the Central Election Commission with a request for a rise.

"We are talking about those who will wear protective suits and visit Covid-19 patients. So far we have not received an answer," Hinkova said. She added that there were villages in the region of Ruse where quarantined citizens would not have the right to vote, as they had not presented a list of at least ten people.
