The stations without electricity are in the villages of Putnikovo, Byal Kladenets and Svetoslav, all in Stambolovo municipality, and in the village of Mineralni Bani in Mineralni Bani municipality. Power has already been restored in Mineralni Bani.

One voting machine has been broken since the start of the day at polling station 130 in Haskovo municipality. No other machine is out of order, Veskova said. The commission has so far received no complaints or reports of violations in the voting.

Technical teams have been told and are working on the problem. Machines at the stations without power run on batteries, which last about three hours.
