Six parties look like entering the next National Assembly, according to a survey conducted in the period from 23 to 31 October by Gallup International and commissioned by the news website OffNews.bg.

The percentages given by the respondents are as follows:

  • GERB - 24.2%
  • Bulgarian Socialist Party - 15.7%
  • We Continue the Change – 13.7%
  • There Is Such a People – 11.3%
  • Movement for Rights and Freedoms – 11.1%
  • Democratic Bulgaria 9.8%

The parties remaining below the 4% electoral threshold for entering parliament are Vuzrazhdane with 3.3% and Stand Up,BG! We Are Coming! with 3.1%.

Sociologists say that the Covid-19 situation and the machine vote could affect the older voters and this could alter the balance between the Bulgarian Socialist Party and We Continue the Change.

As to the election for president the respondents give the following percentages:

  • Rumen Radev 47.6%
  • Anastas Gerdzhikov 25.1%
  • Mustafa Karadayi 8.5%
  • Lozan Panov 5.7%

The elections for National Assembly and for President are scheduled for 14 November.
