There is Such a People Party headed by Slavi Trifonov earned 100,000 more votes at this year’s snap Parliamentary elections, as compared to the general elections held on April 4. This party attracted additional support from core supporters of GERB-SDS and the Bulgarian Socialist Party, people who did not cast their ballots at the previous elections, as well as from people who checked the "I do not support anyone" option at previous elections, announced Gallup International sociological agency, partner of the BNR on election day.

GERB has lost nearly 200,000 votes as compared to the April 4 elections. Nearly 150,000 people who supported GERB at the previous general elections did not go to the polling stations this time.
