NSI: 82% of the population counted – Society – Bulgaria – NOVA News
The counting is over. According to NSI data, 5 million 658 thousand people have been read so far, which is about 82% of the population.
The false start with an electronic system and the refusal of enumerators to go around addresses due to a worsened situation with the coronavirus lead to an extension of the campaign during the week. So instead of October 3, it is included today.
Most of the counted data are taken in the traditional way – with a counter. The number is expected to increase with the processing of all questionnaires. And 2 million 400 thousand people counted online.
By phone and on paper – want to count the last minutes in only the centers in the capital, does not stop in the morning. “There are about 200 people yesterday. There are also people from other municipalities who do not return “, said Sashka Petrova – chief expert of RSO-Southwest.
The influx is announced and counters are refused. There are nearly 50 of them in the Triaditsa region.
Elisaveta Tsanova also waited until the last day. “It just so happened that I couldn’t do it online. The laptop at home is not valid, it is not used with the phone and you decide if if the counters pass they will stay, but so far it is not installed and we came to the place “, she shows.
While the capital is in the process of being deceived, this Ruse is a leader – over 90% of the population has already been counted. There are also curiosities. “There is a family in which the man and the woman forbid to count their son, who went to school for a week, and then they called us again so that he could be counted as well,” says Diana Samharadze.
Hackers are attacking the discovery of feeding data
Despite the high activity in some areas, the NSI acknowledged that they are fascinated by a better result. You can see the reason for this in the hacker attack on the site on the first day. “Besides, I can’t answer what the interest is in these people. The attack was not to download data. This was simply to block access to the rewriting site, “said Sergei Tsvetarski, chairman of the NSI.
Make sure the NSI – people who are not visited by enumerators – will not be fined. Their data will be collected administratively. “It’s not their fault. In any case, this will be lost, because during the census it does not happen in any register “, commented Tsvetarski.
NSI promises interim results around Christmas.
