Four political groups will for sure clear the 4%-margin and enter the 44th National Assembly after the parliamentary elections in Bulgaria on March 26. The first three parties show similar voter support. The difference between Gerb (19.1%) and BSP (18.3%) is less than a percentage point, and the United Patriots are likely to claim 14.4% of votes. The fourth party is the predominantly ethnic Turkish DPS (Movement for Rights and Freedoms) with 5.1%. The figures have been released today by pollster Barometer Bulgaria. Volya (Will) party collects 3.9% of the votes and the Reformist Bloc, 3.5% which means the two political formations are fairly close to the 4% margin. More than 60% of respondents have declared they are going to vote at elections. A little over 15% of Bulgarian voters (about 1 million citizens) have said they will make a last minute decision whether to vote and if yes, whom to support.
