The most talked about candidates were the current president Rumen Radev (BSP- the former Communist Party) and Atanas Gerdjikov (NMSS-GERB), both representatives of the two largest oligarchic clans BSP and GERB, whose oligarchs rule the entire Bulgarian economy and fight for power, to get to the country's economy and the state treasury, and recently their appetites have focused on 18 billion euros, which the EU gives to Bulgaria from the European rescue fund to overcome the damage of the pandemic and to develop the economy.
By the way, GERB is a later born oligarchic clan, its oligarch Boyko Borisov was born from BSP, which gave him the initial financial capital from its capital group Multigroup.
Both clans come from the last elite of the BCP (Bulgarian Communist Party), the BSP and GERB parties are full of communists, are the bearers of the old communist ideological thinking and use the same Bolshevik methods of government.
In both presidential elections - regular and runoff, won Rumen Radev, a representative of the most criminal party BSP, the former Communist Party, which introduced in Bulgaria after 1989 from Russia the neoliberal oligarchic capitalist model, in which large finacial capital in the hands of a small handful of people governs the parties and the state.
In this way, the BSP opened the doors of Bulgaria to invade the finascial capital of the Russian oligarchy, to conquer the Bulgarian economy, exploit the Bulgarians and export their profits to tax havens without reinvesting a single cent in the Bulgarian economy for its development.
The two clans in the last 12 years have rigged the elections to the CEC (Central Election Commission). The falsifications are done with the help of the so-called "dead souls" mostly of dead people, which the parties, for 20 years, deliberately keep in the voter list and pour them into the software at the last moment, thus completely changing the final results - the percentages of the parties and the turnout. So they decide who to put in Parliament, who to give state subsidies to, and so on.
The CEC is elected by the parties represented in parliament by quotas, as was the case in the old communist totalitarian state. Adding the lack of a judicial system independent of political power to control the actions of the CEC, this is sufficient proof that the elections in Bulgaria are being manipulated.
Since 2009, the CEC has been held by GERB and BSP as the largest parties in parliament. In 2009, GERB came to power, became the largest party in Parliament, headed the CEC and rigged all parliamentary and municipal elections in its favor from 2009 to 2021. Since July 11 this year, with the change of parties in the National Assembly, the CEC has been headed by Slavi Trifonov's ITN party, which is considered a BSP publication. In fact, the BSP is behind ITN and it now heads the CEC.
The BSP does not dare to rule openly, it has a very bad image both inside and outside Bulgaria. People hate it because they find it „ the brain of the bandit transition," and Brussels, along with it president, considers it as "Putin's Trojan horse in the EU."
The CEC currently spins and distributes 800,000 dead souls and uses them in both the November 14th presidential and parliamentary elections. In the parliamentary elections, CEC distributed these 800,000 dead people to the new party formed by Radev - the "Party of Change" (PP) and to Putin's and Radev's party "Vazrazhdane". Thus, the CEC artificially raised their percentages and made the PP the largest party in Parliament and introduced "Vazrazhdane" for the first time in Parliament.
In the first presidential round on November 14, in the last hours of the vote count, the CEC inflicted more than 500,000 dead souls on Radev, raising the number of voters from 767,000 to 1,322,000.
In the presidential runoff 31, 6% is the official turnout with 2,096,660 voters. With 800,000 dead souls removed, the unofficial turnout was about 21%. This low turnout was a strong popular fist against Bulgaria's oligarchic status quo.
In his first term, Radev was elected with 2,200,000 votes, and now in his second, he was elected by 2 times less (and the unofficial count by 4 times).
In reality, Radev was elected with 15% of all 6,635,000 Bulgarian voters, which makes it impossible for him to become a "unifier of the nation," as required by the Bulgarian constitution.
And you will not find in Europe a president elected by 15% of all voters.
The manipulations and falsifications of the elections that the parties make in Bulgaria do not occur in any EU country and are criminal under EU law.
The conclusion is that since 2009, no Bulgarian parliament has legally elected a legal one.
In this way, elections are rigged only in two other countries outside the EU - Russia and Turkey, but due to the authoritarian regimes there, they are not considered either "European" or "democratic".
Bulgaria has no free media, all media are run by Russian-Bulgarian oligarchs. It is no coincidence that the international organization Reporters Without Borders holds Bulgaria 111 th on the list of freedom of speech, leaving only Russia and Zimbabwe behind.
Radev will solidify the oligarchic status quo a little more! And then I hope we have enough strength. It is up to us to overthrow him. But before that we have to ORGANIZE WELL, as Levski did!
The Bulgarian people must fight and stop the falsifications of the elections, because otherwise, they have no future, they will be crushed and destroyed by the Russian-Bulgarian oligarchy until they disappear from the map of Еurope.
The way to stop them is to use of the European Court and to initiate criminal proceedings against the last governments of Bulgaria, which bear the greatest responsibility for the falsifications of the elections. In this way, Bulgarian people will expose the falsifications and annul the elections.
