The GERB party with leader Boyko Borissov and SDS said that they would not give a briefing or a statement to the media regarding the results of the early parliamentary elections this evening. The only reaction at the moment from there is a post on the social networks by Borisdov's PR Sevdalina Arnaudova. “They arrested him! They arrested us! They chased us! They wanted to scratch us out! They hit us with Magnitsky! They paid over a million to TV stations to work for them and against him! And finally – even score! United forces with all their powers and manipulations behind them, have even result as him! This is Borissov's great victory!" Arnaudova wrote.
"We Continue the Change - Democratic Bulgaria" and BSP announced that they would not comment on the election results today.
"Vazrazhdane" expect to be the third political force in the new parliament. This is what Tsoncho Ganev, deputy chairman of the party said. The party will not participate in a governing coalition, as "the two leading parties want to take the country to war," according to him. At the end of election day, leader of "Vazrazhdane" Kostadin Kostadinov said that his party was making a revolution and becoming a major political force. "Vazrazhdane" will only support a government with the mandate of "Vazrazhdane," he added.
"Don't expect us to draw dividing lines. We are calling for dialogue. Keeping in mind the situation of the country, our politicians need reason, responsibility and dialogue. We will make the necessary efforts to have a regular government," said leader of the Movement for Rights and Freedoms, Mustafa Karadayi, at a press conference. He was the first political leader who spoke to the media after the end of election day.
According to preliminary assessments, the Movement for Rights and Freedoms achieves the goals it had set for itself - to have at least four MPs from Kardzhali. This is what Mayor of Kardzhali and party deputy chair Hassan Aziz said at a press conference. According to him, the paper ballot helped the movement achieve this result.
"We stand firmly behind the position that the ways of exercising people's right to vote should not be restricted and this has helped a large number of people to cast their vote," Aziz said. The party enters parliament at fourth or third place, according to preliminary forecasts of various agencies.
If ITN entered the parliament, they would try to ensure that the 49th National Assembly would be working "so that the Bulgarian citizens are calm". Stanislav Balabanov from the party said in his first comment after the end of election day. "Bulgarian citizens want no red lines, because they will not lower prices and regulate inflation. We will try to have normal conversations in the next parliament," Balabanov added.
"Bulgarian Rise" and "The Bulgarian Left" are currently refraining from statements to the media.
