The current Bulgarian President Petur Stoyanov who is to run for second mandate called the decision of the Central Electoral Commission `ungrounded` and `without logic`. The Central Electoral Commission announced at a press conference on September 27 that it did not accept the documents of the Committee that supports the candidature of Petur Stoyanov and Nelly Kutskova. `The application does not comply with decision N 7 of the Central Electoral Commission from September 25,` the spokesman of the Electoral Commission Bisser Trayanov said. The Commission gave a three-day extension to the committee to make up for the mistake in the documents. `The Bulgarian people will choose one President at the Presidential election on November 11 and it is to decide. Several members of the Electoral Commission cannot take that decision,` Stoyanov also said. He is in Shabla for the ending exercises of a scheduled strategic command and staff exercise, codenamed Autumn 2001. Almost 50 000 people signed in favor of the candidature of Petur Stoyanov and Nelly Kutskova for President and Vice President, Info Radio reported. 15 000 signatures are necessary for the nominees to run for the positions. Sofia Mayor Stefan Sofianski and the municipality advisors from the United Democratic Forces also signed in favor of the candidature of Stoyanov and Kutskova for President and Vice President, respectively.
