BULGARIA-VOTE-POVERTY

TO GO WITH AFP STORY BY DIANA SIMEONOVA An elderly woman wipes a tear next to the remains of her family house, destroyed by floods in the town of Mizia, northwestern Bulgaria on September 11, 2014. Mizia and its mostly elderly population of 3,300 were devastated by floods on August 2 that turned the streets into muddy brown rivers that swamped 800 houses and left two people dead. Few places typify like Mizia the poverty, misery and anger at an aloof political class in Bulgaria, the European Union's poorest country, ahead of parliamentary elections on October 5.
