"We will be able to organize the early elections without stress if they are scheduled for April 23. However, April 2 is also an option, the Central Election Commission’s Deputy Chairperson Tsvetozar Tomov said for the BNR. 

"It would be a problem if elections are held on March 26, because there may be a shortage of paper ballots, which will be printed from special paper rolls", Tsvetozar Tomov explained. "We are to prepare elections with substantial changes in voting technology. Our decision on the multi-member constituencies will be based on the latest census data", Tsvetozar Tomov noted. "We will make sure that every Bulgarian wishing to vote with a machine can do so", the Central Election Commission’s Deputy Chairperson noted.
