The Central Election Commission (CEC) has released preliminary findings concerning the parliamentary election held on April 19. These initial results reflect the processing of tally sheets from various levels of election administration. Specifically, the data presented is based on the processing of 96.41% of the tally sheets, which were submitted by section election commissions to the constituency election commissions as of 11:00 AM on Monday.
The preliminary announcement also detailed which political parties and coalitions successfully surpassed the mandated 4% electoral threshold. Under the stipulations of the Election Code, the CEC has established specific timelines for the finalization of the electoral process. The commission is obligated to announce the total votes received and the resulting distribution of seats among all participating parties and coalitions no later than four days following the election date.
Furthermore, the official names of the elected Members of Parliament must be published within seven days of the vote. These proceedings marked the eighth parliamentary election conducted in Bulgaria since 2021. The systematic aggregation of data by the various election commission tiers underscores the procedural steps required to validate the results.
The preliminary nature of the report means that the final, conclusive tally remains subject to the completion of processing across all polling stations and administrative bodies. The CEC continues to oversee the tabulation process to ensure adherence to all legal guidelines governing the election outcome.
