Snap shot of electoral attitudes:

Two coalitions are neck and neck in Gallup International opinion poll

The coalitions We Continue the Change/Democratic Bulgaria and GERB-SDS would earn 27.2% and 26.6% of the votes if elections were held now, a survey of electoral attitudes, conducted by Gallup International shows. The survey which was conducted for the Bulgarian National Radio is a snapshot of the electoral attitudes at the start of the election campaign for early general elections. The Movement for Rights and Freedoms (DPS) and "Vazrazdhane" party come second and third with 13.4% and 12.3% respectively. The Bulgarian Socialist Party comes fifth with 7.3%. "Bulgarian Revival" (3.7%), "There is Such a People" (3.4%) and "The Left" coalition (3.2%) are close to the 4% threshold to enter Parliament.

40.6% of the respondents said that they would vote for sure, which means that voter turnout is expected to be similar to the one registered at the previous general elections. Nearly 4.4% of the polled said they would choose the option “I do not support anyone”. The survey was conducted by Gallup International among 1,008 individuals in the period from February 24 to March 3, 2023, by a face-to-face interview, using tablets.
