Ex-journalist and MEP Nikolay Barekov's Bulgaria without Censorship party has pledged to set up a blockade at the Bulgarian-Turkish border on October 1.
Mariya Kalenderska, MP candidate and Barekov's partner, has told national private channel bTV her party doubts the electoral process could be fair here or in the polling sections opened in Turkey.
Kalenderska has called on everybody unwilling to let "election results to be decided with votes from the Bosphorus" to join the blockade.
In her view, NGOs would fail to observe the elections in Turkey.
Bulgaria without Censorship claims some 100 000 votes will come from Turkey for the October 5 snap poll.
For years now, a number of parties, mostly nationalist one, have sought to curb the influx of what they describe as "Turkish busses" transporting Turkish citizens who also hold Bulgarian citizenship.
