On the 25th anniversary of democracy in Bulgaria, Dailey embarked on a photographic journey of the country, capturing its political electorate in all its complexity. Building on a similar series he conducted in the United States from 2010 to 2012 – America in Color – he set out to portray the character of the Bulgaria voter as it completed its latest national election in the fall of 2014. The project took him and his team across Bulgaria, resulting in a series of more than 450 portraits encapsulating this unique culture whose origins dates back to 5000 BC.  From the Bulgar to the Turk to the Roma and beyond, he captured the ethnic character of the nation and its political diversity during the 2014 election, which included more than 25 political parties.
