Narrative:
Low visibility takeoff runway 7. Flex takeoff power set normally. At just about time '80 / checked' callout was made; 3 ECAM items appeared: 1) door forward cargo (this item was on MEL which we were aware of; maintenance confirmed door was closed/locked before pushback). 2) navigation adr 1 fault. 3) F/control. There were also some red flags on captain's pfd. Captain rejected takeoff. I advised tower of reject. (As well as notified passenger and flight attendants to remain seated and we would get right back to them.) we returned to gate; swapped aircraft; and then flew to ZZZ as scheduled.
