40.2% of eligible voters are ready to go to the polls on June 9 as 3.5% said they would vote with "I do not support anyone". 37.7% of voters are ready to vote for European Parliament and 3.1% declare a firm intention to vote with "I do not support anyone". The data are from a "Gallup International Balkan" survey for BNR. It covers 1,003 adult Bulgarians in a representative sample and was conducted through a face-to-face interview with tablets between May 29 and June 4.

If the respondents' declarations are confirmed, GERB-SDS would have 25.9% support, PP-DB - 15.7%, "Vazrazhdane" - 15.5%, DPS - 15.3%. BSP would have 8%, "ITN" - 6.1%. In the vote for European Parliament, GERB-SDS would take 25.7% of the votes, PP-DB - 15.9%, "Vazrazhdane" - 15.4%, DPS - 14.9%, BSP - 7.9%. ITN with 5.9% is on the threshold of having an MEP.

The agency specifies that until the day of the vote, hundreds of thousands of Bulgarians who wish to vote, have declared that they are yet to decide who they would support. On June 9, Gallup is BNR's partner in covering the results of the vote.
