See Which Parties Are Projected to Enter Bulgaria's Next Parliament

Bulgaria operates under a parliamentary republic, with its political system based on a separation of powers among the executive, legislative, and judicial branches. The country's constitution, adopted in 1991, lays out the framework for these institutions and outlines the principles of democracy, rule of law, and human rights.

The Executive Branch

Seven parties are set to enter the 51st Bulgarian National Assembly, according to data from a national survey funded and conducted jointly by bTV and "Market LINKS." The survey was conducted among 1,014 individuals aged 18 and over between October 15-20, utilizing face-to-face interviews and online questionnaires.

Survey Results:

Ivelin Mihailov, leader of the right-wing "Greatness" (Velichie) party, criticized the current political system in Bulgaria, describing it as totalitarian and oligopolistic, where a select few control the power and act without accountability.

If elections were held at the beginning of October, seven political parties would secure seats in the Bulgarian parliament, according to an independent survey conducted by Gallup International Balkan.

According to the latest survey by the "Mediana" agency, if elections were held today in Bulgaria, the GERB party would receive 24.5% of the vote. "Revival" (Vazrazhdane) follows in second place with 13.7%, while "We Continue the Change-Democratic Bulgaria" (WCC-DB) would garner 12.1%.
