Alpha Research

Continue the Change - Democratic Bulgaria (CC-DB) 71 MPs

GERB-UDF 69 MPs

Movement for Rights and Freedoms (MRF) 38 MPs

Unclear winner and disputed third place. Five formations with secure representation in the next National Assembly, and two are close to the 4 percent barrier. These are the conclusions of a "Trend" survey commissioned by NOVA Broadcasting Group on the electoral attitudes of Bulgarians before the vote on April 2.

A total of 162 ballot boxes will be set up in Türkiye for Bulgarian citizens residing in the country as Bulgaria heads to the polls for parliamentary elections for the fifth time in the last two years.

If the elections were held in the last ten days of March, the result would be as follows: "We Continue the Change-Democratic Bulgaria" (WCC-DB) and GERB-SDS would have similar support with 26.9% and 26.5%, Movement for Rights and Freedoms (DPS) and "Vazrazhdane" would contest the third place, respectively with 13.3% and 13%. In fifth place is the Bulgarian Socialist Party (BSP) with 7.2%.

Parity for first and second place in the upcoming elections on April 2, according to a study by "Alpha Research" days before the vote.

GERB-SDS and "We Continue the Change - Democratic Bulgaria" (WCC-DB) have extremely close results, within the statistical error - 25.9% and 25.4%, respectively.

The coalition "We Continue the Change-Democratic Bulgaria" (WCC-DB) leads with 1.4% over GERB-SDS, there is no clear winner in the parliamentary elections on April 2. 23.7% of voters support WCC-DB, GERB-SDS are second with 22.3 percent.

If the elections in Bulgaria were in early March, the result would probably be as follows: "We Continue the Change" - "Democratic Bulgaria" (WCC-DB) and GERB-SDS would have almost identical support with 27.2% and 26.6%, The Movement for Rights and Freedoms (DPS) and "Vazrazhdane" are the other pair with similar results and would fight for third place, with 13.4% and 12.3% respectively.
