The Central Election Commission (CEC) has released preliminary results concerning the parliamentary election held on April 19. These initial findings are based on the processing of 96.41% of the tally sheets collected by the section election commissions and reported to the constituency election commissions as of 11:00 AM on Monday. The CEC’s announcement confirmed which political parties and coalitions successfully crossed the mandatory 4% electoral threshold.
This process marks the eighth parliamentary election conducted in Bulgaria since 2021. Under the provisions of the Election Code, the CEC is mandated to announce the total votes received and the subsequent distribution of seats among the various parties and coalitions no later than four days following the election day. Furthermore, the names of the elected Members of Parliament must be officially published within seven days of the voting date.
The preliminary data provides an initial assessment of the electoral outcome, although final certification awaits the completion of the counting process across all reporting bodies. The preliminary figures, based on the data gathered by the various commission levels, guide the immediate procedural steps required by the constitutional framework to finalize the legislative composition.
