School holidays in Austria kept many Bulgarians from voting
There were 17 polling stations for Bulgaria’s presidential election in Austria, eight of them in the capital. A sense of duty and belonging to Bulgaria has brought our compatriots to the polls at one of the stations located at the Permanent Representation of Bulgaria in Vienna. Nevertheless, voter turnout was significantly lower than at the most recent parliamentary elections, held in April this year. This is what we learn from Martina Shopova-Yanev, a member of a precinct election commission.
