Transportation of voters, voting on behalf of other people, campaigning at polling stations - these are some of the electoral violations found by the observers from the "United for Fair Elections" on election day. In the village of Bukovlak (Pleven district), police detained a man on suspicion of vote trade. 

According to Nikola Tulechki from "United for Fair Elections", 150 observers were monitoring the process in polling stations with statistical anomalies". For instance, people voted en masse in one polling station, while no one turned up in another. Real-time alerts were sent to the Regional Election Commissions and the Ministry of Interior and in some cases the authorities reacted immediately.
