The delegation of the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe (PACE) that observed Bulgaria’s parliamentary elections on October 27 noted the professional organization and conduct of the vote, but also highlighted a lack of trust among voters in the country's political leadership. The head of the delegation, Alfred Heer, stated that the elections had not lead to a breakthrough in the political deadlock. According to him, political leaders from all parties and coalitions need to accept the reality of the Bulgarian people’s division and deal with it.
"The Bulgarian people deserve leaders committed to ensuring a functioning democratic government", said Alfred Heer. PACE recommended considering potential changes to the electoral system to facilitate the formation of stable, regular governments. The delegation expressed concern over allegations of vote-buying and controlled voting in the country, especially in areas with predominantly minority population or population with lower levels of education.
