20:56 Tue 06 May 2008 - Petar Kostadinov
 

The first ever in Bulgaria electronic voting (e-voting) by municipal councilors will take place on May 7 2008 in the council of the town of Kazanluk in central Bulgaria, Bulgarian BTA news agency said on May 6 2008.  

The e-voting will take place during the 68th session of the council. Its agenda has already been published on the town hall website.

Present at the event will be Nikolai Vassilev, Minister of State Administration, Kazanluk mayor Stefan Damyanov and Stara Zagora's regional governor Maria Neikova under whose jurisdiction Kazanluk municipality fails. 

The idea for the e-voting procedure is of Vassil Samarski, chairman of the city council. It is a result of a project which the city hall defended before Vassilev's ministry.

Bulgaria's Parliament is the only elected institution in the country that uses e-voting at this time.
