The Central Election Commission (CEC) has released preliminary results from the parliamentary elections held on April 19. These initial figures are based on 96.41% of the tally sheets processed by the section election commissions and subsequently compiled at the constituency election commissions as of 11:00 AM on Monday. According to the preliminary data, several parties and coalitions have crossed the established 4% electoral threshold.
The CEC is mandated by the Election Code to announce the total votes received and the resulting distribution of seats among parties and coalitions no later than four days following the election day. Furthermore, the names of the elected Members of Parliament must be published within seven days after the election. These elections represent the eighth parliamentary contest in Bulgaria since 2021.
The ongoing tabulation process involves multiple levels of election commission verification, ensuring the comprehensive processing of results. The preliminary report provides an initial assessment of the vote count, which will be finalized as the remaining tally sheets are processed by the various commission levels.
