There Is Such a People (TISP) and Vazrazhdane claimed that voting machines are compromised. TISP floor leader Toshko Yordanov explained to the press in Parliament how that was done by Deputy Electronic Governance Minister Mihail Stoynov and Vazrazhdane put out a press release to demand Stoynov's resignation.

According to Yordanov, Stoynov must even be arrested and the prosecution probe a possible coup. He called for removing machines from the elections.

"There was an extraordinary meeting of Parliament’s Presiding Body, a report came from the State Agency for National Security (SANS), in which it became clear that two days after the Central Election Commission made public the generation of a hash code, which is one of the keys to protect the machines, Deputy Electronic Governance Minister Mihail Stoynov entered the hall, repeated the whole procedure, took a picture with his phone, and downloaded the information on a flash drive," said Yordanov. 

"That's how you manipulate machines," he said. According to him, the deputy minister of e-government of the CC-DB has downloaded the codes, recorded them with his phone, downloaded them on a flash drive and now no one knows who has them. There should not be a single machine on these elections that are coming in because all the machines are compromised, Yordanov added.

A Vazrazhdane press release on Friday quoted party leader Kostadin Kostadinov as saying, "Vazrazhdane wants immediate arrest of the person responsible and cancellation of the voting machines on Sunday. Immediately!"
