Preliminary results, released by the Market Lynx agency following the close of polls, indicate a decisive victory for the winning coalition in the recent election. The coalition secured 38.9 percent of the total votes, achieving a significant majority. The GERB-SDS list, led by former Prime Minister Bojko Borisov, who held office for nearly a decade, emerged as the second-largest party with 15.4 percent of the votes.
The Liberal Coalition PP-DB is projected to receive approximately 14 percent of the votes, placing them in third position. This election marks a notable transition following Rumen Radev’s early resignation. Radev, the first Bulgarian president since 1990 to conclude his second five-year term prematurely in January, subsequently established the Progressive Bulgaria coalition and campaigned on their behalf in March.
The results demonstrate a shift in Bulgaria’s political landscape and set the stage for the formation of a new government. The percentages reflect a diverse electorate and a complex political environment. Further analysis will be conducted to determine the specific composition of the upcoming governing body.
